主题范围

It is increasingly apparent that mitigating the physical risks of climate change and extreme weather events has become paramount, particularly in vulnerable regions and communities. Single agencies, jurisdictions, or sectors cannot effectively diagnose and manage the cross-scale causes of their exposure and vulnerabilities to climate change and disasters. Also, prevailing engagement and assessment methodologies and competencies are unfit for accounting for the novel, uncertain, and systemic dimensions of climate risks and resilience in policies, plans and investment cases. Additionally, there is a dearth of understanding and evidence (i.e., demonstration projects) of the effectiveness of alternatives to Business-as-usual (BAU) management to cope with climate-induced hazards. This is a significant barrier to Governments committing to targets or introducing policies and regulations (standards, subsidies, market design) to support, incentivise or compel decision-makers to take initiatives that generate resilience and value.This Focus Issue aims to collate and report on experiences and lessons learned from significant transformative initiatives in climate-induced hazards and innovations on resilient investments through adaptive governance mechanisms. We welcome research Letters, Topical Reviews, and Perspectives that align with one or more of the following themes:

  • Demonstrate pathways to increased investments in measures that reduce disaster risks, build resilience, or enable adaptation while contributing to more equitable, beneficial, & sustainable outcomes for people and nature
  • Support regions to create value (employment, economic development, social cohesion, natural capital) by providing a coherent and authorising narrative and enabling environment (vision, options and pathways, collective action) on resilience and DRR
  • Provide authoritative advice, principles, tools, and guidance on assessing what climate and disaster risk scenarios mean for agencies and regions and how to develop strategies, policies, plans, and investment projects to mitigate risks, build resilience and adapt to change
  • Explore new governance arrangements for supporting innovative approaches to systemic risk management and resilience investment, such as convening new and inclusive networks, partnerships, and collaborations within and across government, business, investors, and community levels
