Until the 1990s, the Peruvian housing policies exhibited a wide tolerance toward occupation of peripheral land by poor residents, while the state solved the housing demand of the poor allocating large extensions of land for new informal settlements.

Spatial planning is increasingly being considered as an important mechanism in coping with flood risk due to climate change.

The thesis examines whether and how spatial planning...
