Southern Africa is a highly diverse region, from both a geographic and a climatic point of view, spanning the ample deserts in Namibia to the Equatorial rainforests in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). This diversity is also reflected in the variety of hazards that recurrently affect an important part of the surface and the population. Hazards in southern Africa are often due to disruptive climatic events, particularly severe droughts, floods and/or cyclones. The 1992 drought that affe cted most of southern Africa, and cyclones Eline in 2000 and Favio in 2007, which heavily impacted Mozambique and Madagascar, are among the most destructive events of the last two decades in this region.

Climate change is a major concern in this regard, as extreme weather events are expected to increase and become more severe. -
