Meeting regarding the development of technical regulations for the mapping and zoning of natural hazards
Specialists from the National Environmental Agency attended a working meeting held within the framework of the program "Reducing Climate Change-Induced Risks in Georgia." This program is being implemented through a partnership between the Government of Georgia, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), and the Green Climate Fund (GCF), and focuses on the development of natural hazard maps and technical regulations for zoning.
The meeting aimed to review ongoing work related to establishing a unified national approach for mapping and zoning natural hazards specifically floods, avalanches, landslides, and mudflows to harmonize methodological and technical-legal aspects, and to strengthen coordination and cooperation among relevant agencies.
During the meeting, participants discussed work already completed and planned in this area, the methodological approaches for developing technical regulations, the work plan, and the expected outcomes. The meeting was attended by representatives of relevant state agencies and organizations, alongside specialists from the National Environmental Agency.
