The present study examines perceptions and preparedness for flooding in Greece, a country increasingly impacted by natural hazards, particularly due to the effects of climate change. Despite frequent occurrence floods, public remains insufficient many areas. Through survey 1282 respondents from various regions Greece using R statistical software process analyse data, research explores relationship between individual flood risk perceptions, prior experiences, household-level preparedness. findings show most participants are aware governmental plans, but significant gap exists perceived risks actual preparedness, especially regarding insurance relocation willingness. reveal that majority management plans; however, outcomes concerning willingness relocate highlight efforts. Many expressed dissatisfaction with current measures address risks, leading diminished trust respective authorities. To enhance awareness engagement underscores importance localized communication strategies tailored different demographic groups. Given observed efforts should focus on bridging this disconnect through practical, community-driven initiatives. Recommendations include implementing targeted campaigns, promoting government transparent policies, providing financial incentives such as subsidized encourage protective actions, and, additionally, fostering community involvement disaster management, historically flood-prone regions, strengthen resilience against future events.
