|Summary=FRAMES addresses the shared territorial challenge that on-going climate change results in
increasing sea levels and extreme rainfall patterns for areas and communities in the North Sea
Region. The physical, economic and social effects of floods are likely to increase further.
Traditional flood prevention measures (physical infrastructure) are expensive and may not be
sustainable for the future. There will never be enough resources to protect every single citizen
from flooding, but if we smartly combine resilience measures we can minimise impact. No one
organisation or member state has the knowledge to develop sustainable solutions for these
challenges alone. For this, we use the Multi-Layer Safety (MLS) concept as a starting point. The
MLS concept is a policy strategy that integrates measures for: prevention, mitigation via spatial
planning and emergency response. These layers are traditionally managed by different
authorities and sectors, but through MLS, the barriers are lifted and the stakeholders jointly
apply the most effective combination of solutions. The MLS principles are being acknowledged
by more and more authorities and practitioners across the NSR, but have thus far not been
developed in a transnational way. The FRAMES partners are experimenting with MLS related
concepts and will build on this experience to realise sustainable strategies and improve the
capacity of authorities and society to cope with flooding.
