PurposeThis paper is part of the ERASMUS+-funded Strengthening University Enterprise Collaboration for Resilient Communities in Asia (SECRA) project. This study aims to map collaborative architecture between partner universities and the public/private sectors to provide a contextualised collaboration framework for disaster resilience (DR) in South-East Asia.Design/methodology/approachDocumentary reviews were conducted in partner countries to establish the current context of university enterprise collaborations (UEC) in South-East Asia. A concept-centric approach permitted the synthesis of concepts from each country review, allowing for comparisons between collaborative practices that impact the success of DR collaborations.FindingsThe review identified that funding, continuity, long-term strategic plans and practical implementation are lacking in partner countries. However, each country demonstrated good practices and identified enablers and barriers that impact DR collaborations.Research limitations/implicationsThe synthesis revealed a lack of a practical understanding of real-world barriers. Further research is needed to understand real-world experiences in DR collaborations and to provide insights into barriers, enablers and good practices in DR collaborations. Gaining an “on-the-ground” perspective will provide detailed insights and the feasibility of implementation.Practical implicationsThe findings provide the foundations for developing a heuristic UEC framework that can inform policies and practices for DR in partner countries.Social implicationsThe findings can inform various stakeholder policies and practices and promote the exchange of ideas between stakeholders to enhance DR in South-East Asia.Originality/valueThe results are relevant within the South-East Asian, as governments have intensified the adoption of measures to encourage UEC for DR.
目的本文是ERASMUS+资助的“加强亚洲有韧性社区的大学与企业合作”(SECRA)项目的一部分。本研究旨在绘制合作伙伴大学与公共/私营部门之间的合作架构图,为东南亚的抗灾能力(DR)提供一个情境化的合作框架。设计/方法/方法在合作伙伴国家进行了文献综述,以确定东南亚大学与企业合作的当前背景。以概念为中心的方法可以综合每个国家审查的概念,从而可以比较影响灾难恢复合作成功的合作做法。审查发现,伙伴国家缺乏资金、连续性、长期战略计划和实际执行。然而,每个国家都展示了良好的做法,并确定了影响灾难恢复合作的因素和障碍。研究局限性/含义综合显示,对现实世界的障碍缺乏实际理解。需要进一步的研究来了解DR合作的真实经验,并深入了解DR合作中的障碍、促成因素和良好实践。获得“实地”视角将提供详细的见解和实施的可行性。实际含义研究结果为制定启发式UEC框架奠定了基础,该框架可以为伙伴国家的DR政策和实践提供信息。社会影响研究结果可以为各种利益相关者的政策和实践提供信息,并促进利益相关者之间的思想交流,以提高东南亚的DR。原始性/价值研究结果在东南亚具有相关性,因为各国政府已加强采取措施鼓励UEC进行DR。

PurposeThis project aims to improve understanding of disaster preparedness and resilience, as well as animal recovery during a disaster event. The purpose of this study is to determine the type and extent of repair/renovation work required to bring proposed animal safe places and their different components up to the minimum standard for an operational animal evacuation site.Design/methodology/approachOn-site survey using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire was used to collect data through a five stage processes beginning with the creation of a facility register and continuing with the development of assessment guidelines, assessment planning, actual assessment and reporting. In the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, 25 potential animal evacuation sites, including saleyards, showgrounds, animal shelters and racecourses, were identified and accessed.FindingsThe findings of the study reveals that none of the facilities are of high standard. However, 16% would require cosmetic work, 76% would require minor work and the remaining facilities would require significant work. According to the characteristics of the facilities assessed, saleyards have a greater capacity to accommodate animals ranging in size from large to small. More than half of the facilities have average to excellent hay sheds and wash bays, whereas less than half have dedicated animal quarantine space.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings of this study should assist government agencies, local councils, emergency management teams and other stakeholders in planning for and considering renovation/upgrade of potential animal safe places.Originality/valueThe assessment guideline developed as part of this research can be included in the local council’s emergency management plan to improve adequate planning for safe animal evacuation.

Public preference of flood-resilient housing technologies in Nigeria: a case study of Kogi State 尼日利亚公众对防洪住房技术的偏好:以科吉州为例
IF 1.6 Q2 Engineering Pub Date : 2023-08-01 DOI: 10.1108/ijdrbe-09-2022-0092

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore flood-prone area residents' preferences of flood-resilient housing technologies (HTs), to understand the factors influencing their choices. Flood-resilient HTs can reduce damage and disruption at a household level, particularly in areas where large-scale community schemes are not available or feasible. People’s perception of floods and their preferences of flood-resilient HTs are among many very important factors influencing the adoption of these technologies. Therefore, these perceptions and preferences must be well understood before implementation of these technologies can occur. However, studies on these two important factors are lacking in literature, particularly in the sub-Saharan African context.Design/methodology/approachNigerian residents’ preferences of flood-resilient HTs were explored by focusing on five frequently flooded areas around the Niger and Benue river basins in Kogi State, Nigeria. Thirty-eight chat, video and voice call interviews were conducted with participants across five case study areas: Lokoja, Idah, Bassa, Ajaokuta and Koton Karifi. The interviews, informed through an illustrated brochure, covered residents’ experiences and perceptions of floods. This was done to gain an understanding of the factors influencing the choice of flood-resilient HTs adopted and those preferred.FindingsThis study confirms that residents in these five focus areas show similar characteristics to other floodplain residents as encapsulated in protection motivation theory. The flood-resilient HTs discussed in this study include flood-avoidance, flood-recoverability and flood-resistance strategies, as well as neighbourhood-scale approaches. Flood-resistance and flood-recoverability strategies rated highly in terms of suitability and envisaged efficiency in mitigating flooding in Kogi State. Although the measures were mostly agreed to be potentially effective and successful on a household scale, there were concerns as to flood mitigation on a neighbourhood scale.Research limitations/implicationsPre-existing flood-resilient HTs were not extensively discussed in the literature review but were included to have a sense of the participants’ mitigation behaviour, as well as their potential to adopt (or not) new measures after adopting previous ones.Originality/valueThe results provide supporting evidence of the factors influencing the choice of and/or intention to adopt flood-resilient HTs, highlighted in literature. Results also contribute to literature by providing further insight into flood-resilient measures already adopted by residents, as well as their preferred HTs from the options presented. The implications of these findings and methodological considerations in this research are fully discussed in this paper.
目的探讨洪水易发地区居民对抗洪住房技术的偏好,了解影响他们选择的因素。抗洪HTs可以减少家庭层面的破坏和干扰,特别是在没有或不可行大规模社区计划的地区。人们对洪水的感知和他们对抗洪HTs的偏好是影响这些技术采用的许多非常重要的因素之一。因此,在实施这些技术之前,必须充分了解这些感知和偏好。然而,文献中缺乏对这两个重要因素的研究,特别是在撒哈拉以南非洲地区。通过关注尼日利亚科吉州尼日尔河和贝努埃河流域周围的五个经常被洪水淹没的地区,探讨了尼日利亚居民对抗洪HTs的偏好。对五个案例研究领域的参与者进行了38次聊天、视频和语音电话采访:Lokoja、Idah、Bassa、Ajaokuta和Koton Karifi。采访通过一本图文并茂的小册子介绍了居民对洪水的经历和看法。这样做是为了了解影响所采用和首选的抗洪HTs选择的因素。研究结果本研究证实,正如保护动机理论所概括的那样,这五个重点地区的居民表现出与其他泛滥平原居民相似的特征。本研究中讨论的抗洪HTs包括防洪、洪水可恢复性和抗洪策略,以及邻里规模的方法。防洪和洪水可恢复性策略在科吉州缓解洪水的适用性和预期效率方面得到了高度评价。尽管大多数人都认为这些措施在家庭规模上具有潜在的有效性和成功性,但也有人担心在社区范围内缓解洪水。研究局限性/含义文献综述中没有广泛讨论现有的抗洪HTs,但包括这些HTs是为了了解参与者的缓解行为,以及他们在采取之前的措施后采取(或不采取)新措施的潜力。原创性/价值研究结果为文献中强调的影响选择和/或采用抗洪HTs意图的因素提供了支持性证据。研究结果还通过进一步深入了解居民已经采取的抗洪措施,以及他们从所提供的选项中选择的首选HTs,为文献做出了贡献。本文充分讨论了这些发现的含义和本研究中的方法论考虑。

PurposeEarthquake stressful events cause many consequences and need for survivors. Housing reconstruction is one of the most urgent needs; due to traumatic experiences, dialectical changes in people–place relationships occur.Design/methodology/approachThe present study uses the Poe method and Q methodology to identify the hidden dimensions of trauma-informed housing reconstruction. A questionnaire with 74 items on the Likert scale was developed based on indicative Poe. It was completed by the purposive sampling method by Bam households. The influential factors in housing reconstruction with a psychological recovery approach were extracted by q-factor analysis in communities with different traumatic experiences.FindingsAccording to the findings, first, people who had experienced complete home destruction; severe physical injuries; loss of family members and relatives; and were trapped under the earthquake rubble have different place-based needs in housing reconstruction for coping with fears and environmental concerns, protective behaviors, safety perception and as result safety reassurance. Second, regardless of the traumatic experience and losses, reconstruction acceleration and economic-social dignity have a positive effect on the communities’ psychological recovery.Originality/valueIt is noteworthy that housing reconstruction with a psychological recovery approach has two basic aspects. Although some independent factors of traumatic experiences will be efficient in this approach, it was found that the type of earthquake traumatic experiences will also be effective in the survivors’ place-based needs and biases.
目的地震压力事件造成许多后果,需要幸存者。住房重建是最迫切的需求之一;由于创伤的经历,人地关系发生了辩证的变化。设计/方法/方法本研究使用Poe方法和Q方法来识别创伤知情住房重建的隐藏维度。以坡为指标,编制了一份Likert量表,共74项。它是由巴姆家庭采用有目的的抽样方法完成的。通过q因子分析,在有不同创伤经历的社区中提取心理康复方法重建住房的影响因素。调查结果根据调查结果,首先,经历过家庭彻底被毁的人;严重的身体伤害;失去家庭成员和亲属;和被困在地震瓦砾下的人在住房重建中有不同的地方需求,以应对恐惧和环境问题、保护行为、安全感知以及由此产生的安全保证。其次,无论创伤经历和损失如何,重建的加速和经济社会尊严对社区的心理恢复都有积极影响。独创性/价值值得注意的是,采用心理恢复方法进行住房重建有两个基本方面。尽管创伤经历的一些独立因素在这种方法中是有效的,但研究发现,地震创伤经历的类型在幸存者基于地点的需求和偏见中也是有效的。

PurposeThis paper aims to quantitively assess the resilience of residential properties to urban flooding in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, and assess whether they vary at spatially aggregated scales relative to the level of flood exposure.Design/methodology/approachThe study synthesizes theoretical constructs/indicators for quantifying property level resilience, as a basis for measuring resilience. Using a two-stage purposive/stratified randomized sampling approach, 407 questionnaires were sent out to residents of 25 flood-prone areas, to solicit information on the resilience constructs as indicated by the adaptation behaviors of individual households and their property attributes. A principal component analysis approach is used as a mechanism for weighting the indicators, based on which aggregated spatial-scale resilience indices were computed for the 25 sampled areas relative to their levels of flood exposure.FindingsArea 11 located in the moderate flood zone has the lowest resilience index, while Area 20 located in the high flood zone has the highest resilience index. The resilience indices for the low, moderate and high flood zone show only minimal and statistically insignificant differences indicating maladaptation even with incremental levels of flood exposure.Practical implicationsThe approach to resilience measurement exemplifies a reproducible lens through which the concept of “living with floods” can be holistically assessed at the property level while highlighting the nexus of the social and technical dimensions.Originality/valueThe study moves beyond theoretical conceptualization, to empirically quantify the complex concept of property-level flood resilience.
目的本文旨在定量评估尼日利亚哈科特港住宅物业对城市洪水的抵御能力,并评估它们是否在空间聚合尺度上相对于洪水暴露水平而变化。设计/方法/方法该研究综合了量化财产层面弹性的理论结构/指标,作为衡量弹性的基础。采用两阶段有目的/分层随机抽样方法,向25个洪水易发地区的居民发送了407份问卷,以收集有关个体家庭适应行为及其财产属性所表明的恢复力结构的信息。主成分分析方法被用作对指标进行加权的机制,在此基础上,计算了25个采样区相对于其洪水暴露水平的总体空间尺度弹性指数。Findings位于中等洪水区的11区的恢复指数最低,而位于高洪水区的20区的恢复系数最高。低、中、高洪水区的恢复力指数仅显示出最小且统计上不显著的差异,表明即使洪水暴露水平增加,也存在适应不良。实际含义复原力测量方法体现了一种可复制的视角,通过这种视角,可以在财产层面全面评估“与洪水共存”的概念,同时强调社会和技术层面的联系。独创性/价值该研究超越了理论概念化,从经验上量化了财产水平洪水恢复力的复杂概念。

PurposeSocieties go through complex challenges in the face of the vertiginous increase in disasters, mostly produced by the effects of extreme events. The lack of capacity to deal with disasters is evident, especially in developing countries, as in the case of Peru. Under such a premise, this paper contributes to strengthening the country’s capacities, through an evaluation of national disaster resilience to the El Niño-Southern Oscillation-driven hazards caused by the El Niño disaster event between 2016 and 2017 on the Peruvian coast.Design/methodology/approachBy reviewing the literature, various hazards were identified, such as heavy rainfalls and cascading hazards, such as floods and landslides. Even though risk assessments were carried out, 169 people died and essential infrastructure was severely impacted and lost. Through a 12-criteria resilience assessment framework sub-divided into sustainable development and disaster risk reduction, a diagnosis of national disaster resilience was carried out, along with a disaster risk management evaluation. Under such assessments, strategic recommendations were proposed to enhance the resilience of the country.FindingsThe lack of resilience of the country is reflected in the evaluated criteria, the most negative being the built environment due to infrastructure system’s vulnerability to hazards, and the lack of social development, despite national economic growth in Peru.Originality/valueThe research is extremely valuable because it bridges the knowledge gap on disaster resilience in Peru. In addition, the methodology, as well as the multi-topic assessment framework, can be used for other analyses, which are key to building greater capacity in nations around the globe.
目的面对灾难的急剧增加,社会面临着复杂的挑战,这些灾难大多是由极端事件的影响造成的。应对灾害的能力不足是显而易见的,尤其是在发展中国家,比如秘鲁。在这样的前提下,本文通过评估国家对2016年至2017年秘鲁海岸厄尔尼诺灾害造成的厄尔尼诺-南方涛动灾害的抗灾能力,为加强国家能力做出了贡献。设计/方法/方法通过查阅文献,确定了各种危险,如暴雨和级联危险,如洪水和山体滑坡。尽管进行了风险评估,但仍有169人死亡,基本基础设施受到严重影响和损失。通过一个分为可持续发展和减少灾害风险的12项标准的抗灾能力评估框架,对国家抗灾能力进行了诊断,并对灾害风险管理进行了评估。根据这些评估,提出了加强该国复原力的战略建议。调查结果该国缺乏抗灾能力反映在评估标准中,最负面的是由于基础设施系统易受危害而造成的建筑环境,以及尽管秘鲁的国民经济增长,但缺乏社会发展。此外,该方法以及多主题评估框架可用于其他分析,这些分析是提高全球各国能力的关键。

PurposeThe politically laden nature of postdisaster recovery calls for more research on its governance, especially at the micro-scale. Apart from engineering-oriented frameworks, researchers need new theoretical underpinnings. This paper aims to review the development of the evolutionary resilience theory and use it as an analytical framework to evaluate the governance of post-earthquake reconstruction planning in China.Design/methodology/approachThis paper examines how reconstruction planning is governed in the epicenter town of the 2008 Great Sichuan Earthquake, highlighting three key qualities of evolutionary resilience. The authors draw on site investigations, semistructured interviews and analysis of official and unpublished documents from various sources.FindingsThis paper finds that despite the absence of specific resilience statements in reconstruction plans of the time, qualities of evolutionary resilience, including social connectedness, flexibility and innovation, were evident in a hybrid and contradictory reconstruction planning system. In this respect, resilience thinking appears in Chinese planning earlier than generally assumed. This paper suggests that this manifestation of resilience was the result of an instrumental utility in addressing socioeconomic uncertainties in the postdisaster environment and, thus, may not be systematic.Originality/valueThis work enriches the understanding of recovery governance from an evolutionary resilience perspective where existing research is insufficient. It also offers ample practical guidance for similar cases in China and elsewhere.
目的灾后恢复的政治性质要求对其治理进行更多的研究,特别是在微观尺度上。除了以工程为导向的框架,研究人员还需要新的理论基础。本文旨在回顾进化弹性理论的发展,并将其作为一个分析框架来评估中国地震灾后重建规划的治理。设计/方法/方法本文研究了2008年四川大地震震中城镇的重建规划是如何管理的,强调了进化弹性的三个关键品质。作者借鉴了现场调查、半结构化访谈和对各种来源的官方和未发表文件的分析。本研究发现,尽管当时的重建规划中缺乏具体的弹性陈述,但在混合和矛盾的重建规划系统中,进化弹性的品质,包括社会联系、灵活性和创新是明显的。在这方面,弹性思维在中国规划中出现的时间比一般认为的要早。本文认为,这种恢复力的表现是灾后环境中解决社会经济不确定性的工具效用的结果,因此可能不是系统性的。原创性/价值本研究从进化弹性的角度丰富了对现有研究不足的恢复治理的理解。它也为中国和其他地方的类似案例提供了丰富的实践指导。

PurposeThe lessons learned from the 2004 tsunami phenomenon fueled the government and other local authorities to strengthen the legitimate background to mitigate such devastation in future events. This study aims to propose a standardized tsunami-resilient construction guideline for Sri Lanka by integrating existing local and international standards.Design/methodology/approachA comprehensive literature survey was carried out to undertake the study, with a wide-ranging content and thematic analysis of existing tsunami-resilient construction aspects in Sri Lanka. Integrating all existing guidelines with international standards, finally, a consolidated guideline with significant tsunami-resilient building aspects was proposed for stakeholders involved with the resilient built environment in tsunami-prone areas, particularly during the building construction in the coastal belt.FindingsThe existing tsunami-resilient guidelines in Sri Lanka follow similar aspects but in different dimensions. Compared to the international standards, few significant aspects create a gap in local guidelines. Thus, the findings demonstrated that the existing local guidelines must be modified and strengthened by mainstreaming into international practices.Research limitations/implicationsExisting guidelines are more concerned with structural aspects. Nevertheless, proper integration of local and international guidelines would be more favorable to minimizing existing local guidelines’ gaps. Further, a standardized tsunami-resilient building guideline would be a referring document for all stakeholders in tsunami-resilient constructions.Practical implicationsBy aligning local guidelines with international standards, the reliability of the guidelines will be increased and direct the built environment to quality disaster-resilient constructions.Social implicationsThrough a standardized guideline, the community can rely on tsunami-resilient construction in coastal cities.Originality/valueThe consolidated guideline further contains the essentials of city resilience in tsunamis and would be an excellent reference for relevant stakeholders than aligning with several guidelines.
目的从2004年海啸现象中吸取的教训促使政府和其他地方当局加强合法背景,以在未来的事件中减轻这种破坏。本研究旨在通过整合现有的当地和国际标准,为斯里兰卡提出一个标准化的海啸抵御能力建设指南。设计/方法/方法进行了一项全面的文献调查,对斯里兰卡现有的海啸抵御能力建设方面进行了广泛的内容和主题分析。最后,将所有现有指南与国际标准相结合,为参与海啸易发地区有弹性建筑环境的利益相关者,特别是在沿海地区的建筑施工期间,提出了一项具有重大海啸抵御能力建筑方面的综合指南。发现斯里兰卡现有的海啸抵御指南遵循相似的方面,但在不同的方面。与国际标准相比,很少有重大方面会在地方准则中造成差距。因此,调查结果表明,必须修改和加强现有的地方准则,将其纳入国际惯例的主流。研究局限性/含义现有指南更关注结构方面。然而,适当整合地方和国际准则将更有利于最大限度地缩小现有地方准则的差距。此外,标准化的海啸抵御能力建筑指南将成为海啸抵御能力建设的所有利益攸关方的参考文件。实际意义通过使当地指南与国际标准保持一致,将提高指南的可靠性,并将建筑环境引导到高质量的抗灾建筑中。社会影响通过标准化的指导方针,社区可以依靠沿海城市的海啸抵御能力建设。独创性/价值综合指南进一步包含了城市在海啸中恢复能力的要点,对于相关利益相关者来说,这将是一个很好的参考,而不是与几个指南保持一致。

Standardised indicators for “resilient cities”: the folly of devising a technical solution to a political problem “弹性城市”的标准化指标:为政治问题设计技术解决方案是愚蠢的

PurposeDriven by the New Urban Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals, decision makers have been striving to reorientate policy debates towards the aspiration of achieving urban resilience and monitoring the effectiveness of adaptive measures through the implementation of standardised indicators. Consequently, there has been a rise of indicator systems measuring resilience. This paper aims to argue that the ambition of making cities resilient does not always make them less vulnerable, more habitable, equitable and just.Design/methodology/approachUsing an inductive policy analysis of ISO standard 37123:2019 “Sustainable cities and communities — Indicators for resilient cities”, the authors examine the extent to which the root causes of risks are being addressed by the urban resilience agenda.FindingsThe authors show that the current standardisation of resilience fails to adequately address the political dimension of disaster risk reduction, reducing resilience to a management tool and missing the opportunity to address the socio-political sources of risks.Originality/valueSuch critical analysis of the Standard is important as it moves away from a hazard-centric approach and, instead, permits to shed light on the socio-political processes of risk creation and to adopt a more nuanced and sensitive understanding of urban characteristics and governance mechanisms.
在《新城市议程》和可持续发展目标的推动下,决策者一直在努力调整政策辩论的方向,以实现城市韧性的愿望,并通过实施标准化指标来监测适应性措施的有效性。因此,衡量韧性的指标体系有所增加。本文旨在论证,使城市具有弹性的雄心并不总能使城市变得更不脆弱、更宜居、更公平、更公正。通过对ISO标准37123:2019“可持续城市和社区——韧性城市指标”的归纳政策分析,作者研究了城市韧性议程在多大程度上解决了风险的根本原因。研究结果表明,目前的复原力标准化未能充分解决减少灾害风险的政治层面,将复原力降低为一种管理工具,并错过了解决风险的社会政治来源的机会。原创性/价值这种对标准的批判性分析很重要,因为它不再以风险为中心,而是允许揭示风险产生的社会政治过程,并对城市特征和治理机制采取更细致和敏感的理解。

PurposeFloods are among the most frequent urban disasters in cities of the global south where capacity and resource limitations collude with rapid urbanization to force many poor people to live in flood prone settlements. This paper investigated the impact of flood disasters on social resilience of low-income communities in Mzuzu City, Malawi.Design/methodology/approachUsing a quantitative design, 345 households were interviewed in Zolozolo West and Mzilawaingwe Wards in Mzuzu City. The survey instrument achieved a 100% response rate. A reliability test using Cronbach’s alpha showed internal consistency of survey instrument at 0.711 for Zolozolo West Ward and 0.730 for Mzilawaingwe Ward.FindingsOut of the eleven indicators of social resilience used in this study, six indicators showed no correlation with the outcome expectancy of social resilience. Of the five indicators that showed relationship with social resilience, only improvisation and inventiveness (rs = 0.356, p = 0.000 at two-tailed, n = 213; rs = 0.610, p = 0.000 at two-tailed, n = 132) had a strong relationship with the outcome expectancy of social resilience.Research limitations/implicationsThe study was only conducted in two settlements; caution should be observed when generalizing the results.Practical implicationsPractitioners should ensure that social resilience strengthening mechanisms are incorporated in flood risk management as they strive to achieve SDG 11 of making cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.Originality/valueThe study showed how floods can negatively impact the social resilience of low-income communities, which is different from common knowledge that floods can enhance community social resilience.
洪水是全球南方城市最常见的城市灾害之一,这些城市的能力和资源限制与快速城市化相结合,迫使许多穷人生活在易受洪水影响的定居点。本文调查了洪水灾害对马拉维Mzuzu市低收入社区社会恢复力的影响。设计/方法/方法采用定量设计,对Mzuzu市Zolozolo West和Mzilawaingwe区345户家庭进行了访谈。该调查仪器的回复率达到100%。采用Cronbach 's alpha进行信度检验,Zolozolo West病区的内部一致性为0.711,mzilawingwe病区的内部一致性为0.730。研究发现:在本研究使用的11个社会弹性指标中,有6个指标与社会弹性结果预期不相关。在显示与社会弹性相关的五个指标中,只有即兴创作和创造力(rs = 0.356, p = 0.000,双尾,n = 213;Rs = 0.610,双尾p = 0.000, n = 132)与社会弹性的结果预期有很强的关系。研究局限性/意义本研究仅在两个定居点进行;在概括结果时应注意谨慎。实践意义在努力实现可持续发展目标11——建设包容、安全、有韧性和可持续城市的过程中,从业者应确保将加强社会韧性的机制纳入洪水风险管理。独创性/价值本研究展示了洪水如何对低收入社区的社会弹性产生负面影响,这与洪水可以增强社区社会弹性的常识不同。
