An Asset-Based Approach to Enhancing Adaptive Capacity -- Looking at Risk MAP differently Bob Freitag CFM Director of the Institute for Hazards Mitigation Planning and Research and Senior Instructor, UW
Results: “We need stronger neighborhoods, increased walkability, greater sense of place, mixed land uses, closer neighbor and family ties and trust;”
Some approaches: • Appreciative Inquire: Asset based approach. (as compared to a vulnerability based approach.) • Ecosystem Services: HWB goods and services provided by a variety of capital. (natural, social and human built) • Public Involvement : Use of stories (Scenarios), Focus Groups, World Café. • 5e Educational Methods: (engagement, exploration, explanation, elaboration and evaluation) • Resilience as the ability to self-organize. (General Resilience, Specified Resilience, Remembering, Revolt, Feedbacks,Threshold / Tipping Point andTransformability)
1 • Assess Risks/ Opportunities regarding HWB – Round 1 • Identify Risks/ Opportunities (Scoping meeting) 2 a. Maprisks / Opportunities. Develop Scenario. • Risk MAP (Reduce Threats to HWB) d. Evaluate / contextualize strategies b. Assess risks / opportunities regarding HWB • Mitigate Risks/exploit opportunities (in context of future vision) – Round • 3 • Communicate Risks/ 0pportunities regarding HWB – Round 2 • c. Assess risks / • opportunities • regarding HWB • and vetted plans 4 3 Responsibilities: Project Team Activity Community Activity
approaches that strengthened the process: • Stressing opportunities along with risk • Incorporating a rigorous public process • Developing a pre-event baseline built off of what community stakeholders appreciated about their communities • Identify ecosystem services values attributable to natural capital and tools that can document the strength of human networks • Incorporating visioning of the community’s future • Resilience as a community’s ability to self-organize
Resilience within the context of the four phases of emergency management Recovery 1 Preparedness Change Response Response 2 Mitigation possible in any phase
Resilience within the context of the four phases of emergency management • Remembering • Revolt • Feedback • Tipping Point • Transformability • Collapse Recovery 1 Preparedness Change Response Response 2 Mitigation possible in any phase
