Abstract
At the flysh rock mass and karst contact, in the area of central and northern Istria, as well as Kvarner hinterland, numerous geohazard events have been recorded, the most significant of which the instabilities. This paper gives an overview of the research area key settings, important for this type of geohazards. A review of recent instabilities and their consequences is presented to show the research motivation, as well as the need to develop an integrated management system for managing the existing problem. The concept of an integrated approach for geohazard management has been developed through this research, and the proposed framework could be implemented into the present mode of functioning to reduce the consequences for the existing elements at risk. The proposed approach requires extensive and numerous analysis, but certain elements of this framework could be implemented without major requirements.
