1. Introduction
o Flood risks under climate change
ㅇ Climate change is no longer a distant threat, but a present-day reality demanding urgent action.
ㅇ While the Earth’s climate has always fluctuated, the current pace of change is unprecedented.
ㅇ Across Asia, warming exacerbates flood risks, weaving a complex web of challenges due to the region’s diverse geography and climate.
ㅇ Evaluating flood resilience is now critical to navigating these challenges and mitigating the impacts of climate change on communities across the region.

o Objectives of the study
ㅇ The key objectives of the present work are twofold. First, we investigate flood related projects, focusing on an analysis of flood resilience in Asia. Second, we build a suite of flood resilience indices (indicators) for a selection of Asian countries to describe their fundamental properties.
ㅇ In addition, we develop a suite of flood resilience indices based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis.
ㅇ We then employ these indices to assess the recovery capabilities of local governments in areas prone to floods.

o Concept and content
ㅇ Flood resilience can be defined as the ability to recover from flood events. Resilience mitigates impacts on communities and infrastructure before, during, and after a flood.
ㅇ In the present work, we describe the four fundamental components of flood resilience: Redundancy, Robustness, Rapidity, and Resourcefulness. We term this the 4R approach.
ㅇ Strengthening flood resilience ca ...
