Abstract

This bachelor’s thesis analyzes the approach of the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic to flood management in 1997 and 2024. Particular attention is paid to identifying the main differences in the organization of response, preparedness, technical equipment, and cooperation among individual components within the framework of crisis management. The theoretical part of the thesis defines basic concepts related to floods, crisis management, and the Integrated Rescue System. The practical part is presented in the form of a case study and is based on qualitative research, specifically semi-structured interviews with selected experts from the field. Based on the obtained data, the main differences between the examined periods are described, and possibilities for further improvement in the areas of preparedness and emergency management are outlined.
