Social impacts include displacement of populations, loss of homes and possessions, disruption of community cohesion, and psychological distress among affected individuals.
Floods can have significant social impacts on communities, including displacement of people from their homes, loss of livelihoods, and disruptions to essential services like water and electricity. They can also cause emotional distress, strain community cohesion, and exacerbate inequalities, affecting vulnerable populations disproportionately. Recovery may require long-term support and resilience-building efforts.
