Fund Type

The NDMP fills a critical gap in Canada's ability to effectively mitigate, prepare for, respond to and recover from, flood-related events foremost by building a body of knowledge of flood risks in Canada, and investing in foundational flood mitigation activities (e.g. risk assessments and flood mapping). Knowledge that is up-to-date and accessible will not only help governments, communities and individuals to understand flood risks and employ effective mitigation strategies to reduce the impacts of flooding, but will also further discussions on residential flood insurance.

The objective of the NDMP is to reduce the impacts of natural disasters on Canadians by: focusing investments on significant, recurring flood risks and costs; and advancing work to facilitate private residential insurance for overland flooding.
