More frequent and intense climate hazards are devastating Australian communities and are projected to worsen as climate changes. This project aims to develop and communicate urgently needed strategies to assist coastal communities to prepare for and respond to climate hazards. The relationship between local-scale connection and capacity to prepare and respond will be investigated using mixed methods research in at-risk communities. The research will deliver practical guidance to policy makers and managers that will optimise investments in building community resilience, advance the discipline of human geography, and benefit over 20 million Australians living in coastal areas by creating new knowledge on neighbourhood adaptive capacity.

更频繁、更严重的气候灾害正在对澳大利亚社区造成破坏，并且预计会随着气候变化而恶化。该项目旨在制定和传达迫切需要的战略，以帮助沿海社区做好准备和应对气候灾害。将使用高危社区的混合方法研究来调查当地规模的联系与准备和应对能力之间的关系。该研究将为政策制定者和管理者提供实用指导，优化对建设社区复原力的投资，推进人文地理学学科的发展，并通过创造有关社区适应能力的新知识，使生活在沿海地区的超过 2000 万澳大利亚人受益。
