Project IC13_II - 'Managed retreat': Flood-related relocation and risk communication in New Zealand and Germany

New Zealand and Germany have densely populated, low-lying coastal areas that are exposed to erosion and sea level rise. Both countries have put extensive financial and technical efforts in coastal defense measures in order to protect buildings, settlements, and infrastructures.
