Since 1985 more than 350 millions were displaced because of flood events. During the last 19 years, 44 floods generated the displacement to more than 1 million people. Most of these major floods were located in Asia and took place during the summer. But in the fall (Sept/Oct) and in specific years (e.g. 1988, 93, 98 and 99), Central America also faced large displacement of people. For 1989, 90 and 91 our database needs to be completed. | |
