FLOODsite : Integrated Flood Risk Analysis and Management Methodologies
FLOODsite covers the physical, environmental, ecological and socio-economic aspects of floods from rivers, estuaries and the sea. It considers flood risk as a combination of hazard sources, pathways and the consequences of flooding on the “receptors” – people, property and the environment.
For background information, see the Project Overview area; for more specific information see the Work Programme area. FLOODsite uses 7 different pilot sites spread across Europe to interactively develop tools and solutions for flood risk management.

ALFA - Adaptive Land use for Flood Alleviation
ALFA stands for ‘Adaptive Land use for Flood Alleviation’. It is an EU-funded project (INTERREG IVB NWE) which aims to protect citizens in the North West Europe region against the effects of the risk of flooding due to climate change. This will be done by creating new capacity for water storage or discharge of peak floods within river catchments in Belgium, France, Germany, United Kingdom and The Netherlands.
