Anotace
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to explore the risk perceptions and activities of people to reduce impacts of disaster. Design/methodology/approach - Case study research has been conducted in village Podhradi nad Dyji in the Dyje river basin in Czech Republic. Villagers from different age groups, experts, NGO members have been interviewed to understand people's perceptions of flood risks and their actions. Findings - The research has found that changing flood insurance policy influenced people's risk perception. There is also increasing self-dependency among people to reduce impacts of disaster. They come together to support each other and develop collectivities in managing disaster. People's actions and willingness to participate in disaster management activities change with distance from the river bank. Research limitations/implications - The village identified for the case study research has been affected by floods after implementation of the Crisis Management Act No. 240/2000 Coll. The findings of the study are influenced by geographical location of the municipality and cannot be generalised in the Czech Republic. Practical implications - The research has listed physical as well as socio-economic and cultural indicators of risk perception in the Czech Republic. These indicators and outcomes should help to assess and identify the gaps in reducing impacts of floods. Originality/value - The study has revealed the interconnection between physical, socio-economic, and cultural factors of risk perception after implementing the Crisis Management Act No. 240/2000 Coll. and changing strategies in disaster management in the Czech Republic.
