    Abstract It is widely recognized that an integrated approach is needed to reduce flood risks. Many countries are introducing adaptive and integrated systems of risk management in addition to conventional structural and engineering solutions. This paper aims at proposing approach of strengthening a flood risk governance, in particular, collaborative mechanism. The integrated approach involves a wide range of stakeholders of central and local governments, private sector, academia, local communities engaging in various sectors, such as water resources management, agriculture, forestry, housing, and urban planning. However, establishing a collaborative mechanism among these stakeholders is a challenge. The paper reviews recent studies in flood risk governance and examines practices in Japan. It was found that there is no one-fit-all model in flood risk governance. Local bodies on site, trust with stakeholders, and usage of local knowledge are key in strengthening collaborative mechanism.

  7. Article ; Online: Disaster Risk Reduction Funding: Investment Cycle for Flood Protection in Japan.

    Ishiwatari, Mikio / Sasaki, Daisuke

    Abstract Background: Investment in disaster risk reduction is crucial in order to mitigate disaster damage. However, for many countries, particularly developing ones, financing investment in disaster risk reduction is challenging. This study aims to examine the factors that affect investments in flood protection and the approaches to securing investments by analyzing investment trends in Japan.
    Methods: This study examines 150 years of flood protection and investment cycles that helped reduce damages in Japan. The dataset of flood protection budgets, flood damage, and national income since 1878 was created from public statistics. Documents and reports concerned with disaster management, river management, and finance were examined.
    Results: The study found five investment cycles of flood protection from the late 19th century to the present. The country established financing mechanisms, such as legislation and long-term plans, following major flood disasters. However, external shocks such as war, economic recession, disaster, and tightened national finance had a major impact on these investments. The fluctuations in the budget created an investment cycle. The country had increased its budget to 0.9% of its national income in the 1990s. It often experienced flood damage accounting for over 1% of the national income until 1961, but succeeded in decreasing the damage to less than 1%, and currently it is limited to less than 0.4%.
    Conclusions: The financial mechanisms established from the long-term perspective could support an increase in budgets for flood protection, leading to a decrease in damage. However, established financing mechanisms may weaken the financial flexibility of the country.

    An empirical study focusing on the relationship between investment and damage

    Abstract Investing in disaster risk reduction is crucial in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals since natural disasters can impede sustainable development by causing economic and human losses. To consider investment in disaster risk reduction, policymakers need information on appropriate scales of investment depending on disaster damage occurred and socioeconomic development. However, there is a limited number of empirical studies that examine investment in disaster risk reduction, since the dataset of investments across countries is rarely available. This study aims at proposing the approaches of financing investment in flood protection, which is integrated with climate change adaptation. To our knowledge, this study is the first empirical analysis on the relationship between investment and damage and socio-economic development across economies. A multiple regression model is applied to analyze the relationship between investment in flood protection and flood damage and other socio-economic development. Investment data were collected from government agencies in major flood-prone countries in Asia. It was found that greater flood damage is associated with a larger budget for flood protection. The governments start increasing budgets after major disasters happen and further increase them as GDP per capita and population density rise. To study investment in disaster risk reduction further, datasets of budgets need to be established.

    Abstract The long-term mortality risk of natural disasters is a key threat to disaster resilience improvement, yet an authoritative certification and a reliable surveillance system are, unfortunately, yet to be established in many countries. This study aimed to clarify the mechanism of post-disaster indirect deaths in Japan, to improve the existing disaster recovery evaluation system and support decision making in public policy. This study first investigated the definition of indirect deaths via a literature review before examining the observed number of indirect deaths via case study, census data from the Population Demographic and Household Surveys, other social surveys, and reports in the case of the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, which severely damaged northeastern Japan, especially the three prefectures, which are the target areas in this context (i.e., Fukushima, Iwate, and Miyagi). It was found that the reported number of indirect deaths was significantly underestimated. In total, 4657 indirect deaths were estimated to have occurred in the target prefectures. This was higher than the reported number, which was 3784. The overall statistics established via collaboration between local administrations and governments can be improved to provide better reference for researchers and policymakers to investigate the long-term effects of natural disaster.
