Flood risk assessment and mitigation, Bolivia (2014-09-24)

<br>
Activation date: 2014-09-24 <br>
Event type: Other <br>
<br>
Activation reason: <br>
The northern territories of Bolivia are regularly affected by massive flooding during the rainy season, which runs from October to April. Departments El Beni and La Paz (northern part) are particularly exposed because of extensive wetlands and the presence of large rivers such as Beni and Mamore. During the past decade, the floods which occurred in 2008 and 2014 appear to be the most significant events. Local authorities express the need to better know the areas prone to floods and vulnerability of populations and infrastructure. Proposals related to protection measures and evacuation plans for the most populated locations (Trinidad, Santa Ana del Yacuma, Rurrenabaque and Guanay) are part of the analysis. <br>

启用缘由：
玻利维亚北部地区在每年10月至次年4月的雨季期间，常会遭受大规模洪涝灾害。贝尼省（El Beni）与拉巴斯省（La Paz，北部区域）因境内遍布广袤湿地，且有贝尼河（Beni）、马莫雷河（Mamore）等大型河流流经，受洪涝影响尤为严重。过去十年间，2008年与2014年发生的洪涝灾害堪称最严重的两起事件。当地主管部门表示，亟需更全面地掌握易发生洪涝的区域分布，以及民众与基础设施的受灾脆弱性情况。本次分析还将涵盖针对特立尼达（Trinidad）、圣安娜德尔亚库马（Santa Ana del Yacuma）、鲁雷纳瓦克（Rurrenabaque）与瓜奈（Guanay）等人口密集区域制定防护措施与疏散预案的相关方案。
