This report provides a detailed breakdown of the sectors affected, economic losses and damages caused by severe flooding and landslides in the Seychelles, particularly in three districts on the southeast coast of Mahé (Au Cap, Pointe Larue, and Cascade), as well as on the nearby islands of Praslin and La Digue, after the heavy rains resulting from tropical cyclone Felleng on January 2013.
The report presents estimates of the equipment and manpower needs to rebuild better and to create legislation that incorporates disaster risk reduction and management throughout so that Seychelles continues to develop into a country that is more resilient to disasters – a disaster-resistant nation safe for all.
