Initial actions in Europe” Challenges and state of adaptation in the transport sector across EEA member countries illustrated by a selection of in-depth case studies • prepared draft report • publication planned for autumn 2014 after Eionet consultation (mid July, T.B.D.)

  7. Disaster risk reduction Following up 2013 ETC/CCA Technical Papers on impacts of floods … 2014 Further improved Meta-Guidance on flood impacts • Drafting Meta-Guidance on flood impacts (with an example) including analysis of data from EM-DAT, Munich Re. • finalization planned for autumn 2014
