Problem addressed
The citizen application addresses a critical gap in Europe’s climate change adaptation framework by allowing citizen participation and digital technology to improve flood monitoring and response. The demand for such solutions is expected to grow as extreme flooding events become more frequent, making it an attractive tool for public agencies, private sector stakeholders, and local communities alike. There is an increasing emphasis on citizen engagement in climate adaptation strategies, aligning with EU directives to involve communities in disaster preparedness. .
