dc.description.abstractThis report provides a detailed account of the Newton Fund Peru Researcher Links Workshop held between 20th and 23rd August 2018 in Piura, Peru, entitled ‘Building Resilience in Flood Disaster Management in Northern Peru’. The report provides some background to the workshop, the aim and objectives, problem definition, as well as an account of the workshop process and key workshop findings and recommendations. The workshop was run jointly by Birmingham City University (BCU) in partnership with Instituto Geofísico del Perú (IGP) and was hosted by the Universidad de Piura (UDEP). The workshop was a response to the severe flooding experienced in Piura during the El Niño event of March 2017 which caused a number of fatalities, damaged over 100,000 homes and destroyed much local infrastructure including around 100 bridges. El Niño is a recurrent event and there is concern that its frequency and intensity may change in the future as a consequence of climate change. Six key and integrated themes emerged from the workshop activities as: i) Governance; ii) Risk Information; iii) Healthy Communities; iv) Infrastructure; v) Urban and regional planning; and vi) the River System. For each of these themes, the report provides an overview of the problem as well as some detailed suggestions and recommendations for addressing the difficulties and challenges identified.es_ES
