Flood risk management and flood risk communication are key terms in dealing with floods in our century, as we have been facing major flood events with massive damage in recent years. Flood risk communication with authorities and population at risk is getting increasingly important for flood risk management, especially as a precautionary measure. Besides the build environment, all stakeholders need education and organization adapted to their own social and economic particular features. For the Romanian territory, the historical 2006 spring flood was one of the most important and the starting point of unprecedented legislative, research and operative projects.This study aimed at gaining insight into the perception of flood risks along the Danube within the Dolj County.
