International Hydrological Programme

Integrated Basin Management under Changing Climate

The Twenty-seventh IHP Training Course

4th – 15th December, 2017
Kyoto, JapanWater Resources Research Center, Disaster Prevention Research Institute,Kyoto University
Institute for Space-Earth Environmental Research, Nagoya University

Outline
A two-week training course on integrated basin management strategies including aspects of waterresources, water related disasters under climate change is programmed for participants from
Asia-Pacific regions as a part of Japanese contribution to the International Hydrological Program(IHP). The course composed of a series of lectures, model practices, field exercise and technical visits
will be held at Disaster Prevention Research Institute (DPRI), Kyoto University during the two weeks
from 4th to 15th December 2017.

Objectives
Development of resilient society has become an inevitable issue under the recent climate change
increasing the frequency of extreme phenomena such as unprecedented flood and severe drought. In
order to make our society more resilient, social adaptation to the hazards and countermeasure fordisasters are required based on technologies for prediction and assessment on the future conditions ofwater resources.
In light of the Focal Area 1.1 “Risk management as adaptation to global change” and 1.2“Understanding coupled human and natural processes” under the Theme 1 “Water related disasters
under hydrological change” of the IHP-VIII, the 27th IHP training course is focused on following threeobjectives: 1) to acquire the latest knowledge on climate change impacts on water resources, water
related disasters and ecosystem services, 2) to make practice on rainfall-runoff-inundation estimation
at river basin scale, and 3) to discuss strategies of integrated basin management to realize resilient
society under climate change.
