Risk communication, women’s participation and flood mitigation in Vietnam: An experimental study
EfD Authors:
Flood risk management has become important more than ever, because an escalating threat of unpredictable and extreme weather is affecting flood-prone communities. People-centred risk communication has been proposed as an effective strategy that can stimulate people to protect themselves against flood risks.

We use a field experiment to analyse how risk communication can influence households’ intentions to implement mitigation measures.
