“…Propective refers to the anticipation of future risk avoiding the creation of new risk factors). Our proposal reinforces management actions favoring improvements in risk knowledge and understanding, which are still insufficiently dealt with in Colombia [9,23,58,62]. The proposal is also based on the legal framework for disaster risk management in Colombia [59].…”

“…The first flooding incident occurring in Barranquilla was registered in 1916 [22]. However, it is in the period 2010-2011 that the area was impacted by the historically most severe natural event ever suffered ("La Niña") [23]. This Niña event led to the entire city, particularly neighborhoods on the western slopes, suffering severely from landslides and stream flooding [10,24].…”

“…This latter concept is increasingly employed in the international scientific literature and, as risks to the urban population increase, urban resilience gains relevance in the major international development agendas. Urban resilience refers to the capacity for overcoming the impact of natural and anthropogenic hazards and the associated vulnerabilities of affected populations [23]. Facing risks through an effective institutional and governmental response, with adequate citizen participation can significantly help recover adequate levels of social security, employment, income, and quality of life for citizens, after they have experienced the negative impact of one or more hazards [34,35].…”

Multiple Hazards and Governance Model in the Barranquilla Metropolitan Area, Colombia

et al. 2021

The Barranquilla Metropolitan Area is exposed and often vulnerable to various natural and anthropogenic hazards. The paper’s main objective is to identify the level of understanding that local and regional institutions have of such a multi-hazard scenario, as well as the effectiveness of governance arrangements in minimizing impacts. Research employed a questionnaire applied to 115 stakeholders from government and a survey of 391 households from four communities in the study area. Four focus groups were held during the update of the Barranquilla Development Plan 2020–2023. The results allowed the identification of an updated set of hazards and the levels of government response capacity. The overall level of capacity and effectiveness of local government to respond to hazards was classified as regular. Seventy-seven percent of epistemic ‘experts considered that the institutions responsible for risk management did not undertake sufficient analysis for identifying and managing multiple hazards. Finally, the research team developed a new model of risk management.
