Synopsis

This Atlas is the product of a project entitled Risks, vulnerabilities and hydroclimatic disasters in the State of Paraíba: subsidies for planning and management of territories, started in February 2019 and concluded in February 2023, being funded through the Universal Call MCTI/CNPq 2018. The main objective of the project was to identify the Risk Index of Flood Disasters (IRDI) and Climate Disasters (IRDC) for the state of Paraíba, as well as detailing the social vulnerability of specific municipalities (study at census level ) and the construction of practices in Education for Disaster Risk Reduction (ERRD).

The Atlas gathers some of the thematic mappings elaborated for the project, considering the 223 municipalities, presenting them through a descriptive text and graphics that emphasize the variables analyzed for the context of Paraíba, with a focus on the Pluviometrically Homogeneous Regions.
