Europe & Central Asia
Macedonia is prone to floods, forest fires, droughts, winds and storms, landslide, earthquakes and extreme temperatures such as heat waves or cold waves. Over the past years, the frequency and intensity of floods has been on the rise. Macedonia is located in a high seismic activity area: the Vardar zone has the highest frequency of earthquakes and Skopje has the most mobile urban environment.
In 2011, the CADRI Partnership expertise was mobilized to apply the CADRI methodology to support a capacity assessment in disaster risk reduction. The recommendations informed the Government national programme as well as the South Eastern Europe Disaster Risk Mitigation and Adaptation Programme.
