Abstract |
With increasing urgency of local and regional climate adaptation, there is a growing need for |
governments to identify and respond effectively to the concerns of communities they serve |
and to align investments. We designed and piloted a novel hyperlocal method for urban |
adaptation planning combining two social science tools that have been widely but separately |
used to foster community engagement and strategize solutions. Our not-for-profit community partners facilitated multi-session online workshops with participants from two communities in South Florida with whom they have well-established relationships and in which socioeconomic conditions and climate risks represent notable vulnerabilities. The workshops first |
employed photovoice to elicit individual narratives about climate change impacts; participants then followed a design thinking protocol to critically evaluate the leading concerns |
they identified and propose adaptation solutions. Geospatial mapping and data tools were |
provided for participants to gain additional tools and further knowledge. Local planning and |
resilience officials attended some or all of the workshops as observers and interlocutors, |
dialoguing with participants. Comparative analysis revealed differences in risk awareness |
and primary concerns between communities, and further demonstrated that concerns and |
solutions proposed by members of at-risk neighborhoods do not always align with geospatial data that often drives infrastructure adaptation planning in the region, suggesting that |
more widespread use of community engaged methods could enhance government climate |
adaptation responses for local communities. |
