The impact of climate change has become a significant global challenge, leading to an increase in climatic risks. As climate change progresses, weather events are expected to become more severe (Michalis et al, 2022a) posing a considerable threat to critical assets located near watercourses and vulnerable societal functions susceptible to extreme droughts and floods. Traditionally, resilience-building approaches have focused on managerial and technical crisis responses, while citizen engagement regarding risks and preparedness measures has been predominantly one-way and top-down. However, research has shown that this top-down approach is insufficient (Michalis et al, 2022b), prompting a need for more active citizen involvement in disaster management through a citizen-oriented, bottom-up approach.
