The Risk Assessment And Mapping Guidelines For Disaster Management document serves as the primary reference for conducting systematic risk assessments and creating standardized risk maps across Belgian territories. It has been developed in response to the increasing complexity of disaster risks and the need for harmonized approaches across federal, regional, and local levels. The guidelines incorporate requirements from both Belgian legislation and EU directives, particularly addressing Belgium's specific risk profile including industrial clusters, flood-prone areas, and nuclear facilities. This document should be used by all authorities and organizations involved in disaster risk assessment and emergency planning within Belgium, providing standardized methodologies, tools, and templates for comprehensive risk evaluation and mapping.
