CONTINGENCY PLAN Nepal: Monsoon flooding and landslides June 2017
PDF File Size: 1.01 MB | Download   
Every year, during the monsoon period of June to September, communities
in the Terai and Hill areas of Nepal are exposed to increased levels of flood
and landslide risk. Such risks can lead to immediate humanitarian suffering;
they can exacerbate pre-crisis vulnerabilities and erode development gains.
Nepal is at high risk from multiple natural hazards. A database of past disaster events (covering the period 1971-2008) shows that in terms of numbers of persons affected the principle hazards that Nepal is exposed to are
earthquakes, floods, landslides and fires.
