3 Catalyst for Recent Disaster Risk Reduction Policies in Brazil Source: IBGE, 2010 Natural disaster of January 2011 in the mountains west of Rio: over 900 fatalities, 350 missing and thousands left homeless. A catalyst for DRR policies focused on prevention Creation of CEMADEN Urban Growth: change from rural to urban population Over 5 million people, mostly poor and vulnerable, living in areas of high disaster risk in Brazilian cities 3
4 Towards an interdisciplinary perspective Understanding: what different type of data need to be collected? How to engage citizens? Forecasting: How to include emerging data in forecasting models and systems? Alerting: how to issue warnings in face of uncertainties? How to communicate risks? 4
5 Natural Disasters and Population Governance & Policies for: Disaster Risk Reduction and Adaptation* Urban Water Management Climate Change, Agriculture and Water Planning and Scenarios Water State-of-the-Art in São Paulo State Urban Planning International Research Cooperation Source: IBGE, 2010 *Source: Brazilian Atlas of Natural Disasters
6 Natural Disasters in Brazil: over 95% of disasters are climate related Forest fires, Floods, Drought, Mass movements Droughts, Floods, Flash Floods Wildfires, Floods, Erosions Flash Floods, Wind Storms, Hails, Landslides Wildfires, Flash Floods, Floods, Droughts, Landslides, Debris Flows 6
7 Main Research Areas in Natural Disasters Natural Disasters Natural Disasters Modeling Hydrology Geology Meteorology Agrometeorology Forest Fires
8 Post-2011 Sendai DRR Policy in Brazil: A Paradigm Shift National Plan for Risk Management and Response to Disasters $ 8 billion over 4 years Relief and recovery Prevention Building structural resilience (slope, stabilization, drainage and flood control) Response Strengthening early warning networks (e.g., 4 thousand automated raingauges, 9 weather radars, 300 riverflow sensors, data integrations, modeling, hazard prediction, etc.) Monitoring and warning Mapping and understanding risk High resolution mapping of risk areas for 1000 municipalities
9 Fully Integrated System of DRR Disaster Risk Governance
10 ...Towards a National Strategy for Disaster Risk Management CEMADEN INMET, INPE, DECEA/MD & STATE CENTRES Hydrometeorology information MI, MCid e IBGE Disaster Risk & Vulnerability Analyses CPRM Geological Vulnerability Mapping ANA Hydrological information COMMUNITY Local feedback CENAD Alert & Logistics Monitoring and Early Warning MS, GSI, MT, Army Force CIVIL DEFENSE UNIVERSITIES & RESEARCH INSTITUTES Knowledge transfer, methods and hypothesis-testing, applied research databases on natural disasters (vulnerability, exposure, hazards, risks) Multidisciplinary Team: Geologists Geographers Engineers Hydrologists Meteorologists IT professionals Social scientists Contingency & Response Plans
11 Science, Technology and Innovation for a more resilient Society Operation (monitoring & alerts) Information Technology and Data Sharing Support IT infrastructure according to ISSO and Brazilian Law of Information Transparency Observational Sensor Network Multidisciplinarity Promotion of management mechanisms to integrate research, development to operational alert systems Mission: Promote advanced topics of Science, Technology and Innovation for disaster risk prevention through applied interdisciplinary research, using participatory public policies towards a more resilient society to disaster risks * Budget Growing observational sensor network, fully operational and online Planning Strategic planning according to international and national frameworks Applied Research & Development Innovation Innovation leadership for disaster risk reduction Capacity building and training towards innovation and leaps of knowledge Infrastructure & Engineering
12 CEMADEN Observational Sensor Network + 9 Radars Online Rainfall Stations + 286* Online Streamflow Stations All information and database are open & available for research & development through officially signing MoUs 10* Robotic Stations + 900* Motion Sensors + 135* Soil Moisture Stations Online Agrometeo.
