The Swiss supported interventions in different thematic fields of Disaster Risk management (DRM) Water Resource Management (WRM), Glaciology and Energy are based on tools and approaches which were developed, tested, adjusted and validated with relevant key stakeholders of the sector, namely:

  • Early Warning Systems (EWS) for Disaster Risk Management
    • EWS for Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOFs)
    • EWS for Flash Floods
    • EWS Landslides
  • Assessments and modeling for DRM and WRM
    • GLOFs modelling and assessments
    • Flash floods modelling and assessments
    • Landslide modelling and assessments
    • Assessment of SAR-data for landslide mapping
    • Thermomechanical modelling of rock-ice avalanches
    • Pan-INDIA Climate Vulnerability framework and assessment
    • Modelling for water resource management
    • Analysis for springshed management
  • Decision support systems (DSS)
    • For Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) planning for a river basin
    • For Water resource management of a reservoir System
    • For Springshed management planning
  • Capacity building is a fundamental cross-cutting aspect referring to all sectorial interventions and a broad range of audience:
    • Disaster Risk Management (DRM)
    • Water Resource Management (WRM)
    • Springshed management
    • Glaciology
