This volume discusses the increasing occurrence of floods and
tornadoes in Southern Africa over the last few years. The book
discusses existing flood and tornado management protocols,
indigenous approaches to mitigate disaster risk, urban and
peri-urban flooding, tornado-induced flooding and windstorms, and
the challenges and vulnerabilities associated with rural and
transboundary floods. The book offers planning and recovery
strategies to minimise impacts from these events through
sustainable means. Such means include sustainable drainage systems,
waste management in harbors and beaches, community engagement in
flood-prone areas, and improved food security measures in urban
poor households.
