Cities which were frequently affected by floods or storm surges induced by typhoons. Cities which are socio-economically and environmentally important in their countries, as well as in the region or areas. -The pilot case studies will be implemented by national focal points, based on the manual for implementation of the project, with supports from various sources. 2. The Task Force will also create handbook for UFRM based on the good practices and the pilot city studies, which can be used in other countries. Objective of Task Force 7/18
