الملخص

This study seeks to determine the level of awareness of climate change and environmental issues among individuals affected by floods, and to reveal the relationship between such awareness and the study variables (gender, age, educational level, nationality, and income level). A questionnaire targeting individuals affected by floods in the Emirate of Sharjah was designed and sent to 300 male and female respondents with different demographic characteristics. The findings show a high level of climate and environmental awareness among flood victims. They also reveal a statistically significant relationship between the level of awareness and the variables of age, educational level, and income level), but no statistically significant relationship between the level of awareness and the variables of gender and nationality.
