Participatory resilience assessment - a tool for building resilience of and through urban green-blue infrastructure
ENABLE fact sheet #2: Urban green and blue infrastructure is a critical ingredient for helping cities adapt to climate change – to reduce flood risk and heat stress – and to offer a place for residents’ recreation and other social purposes. However, climate change, urbanisation and reorganisation of their management put the natural and seminatural areas that provide these benefits under pressure. Knowledge of how the green and blue infrastructure and its benefits are affected should inform decision making, policies, plans and management to ensure that urban residents can continue to enjoy the benefits of green and blue infrastructure in the future. A participatory resilience assessment is a useful tool for understanding the drivers of change and their impact on green and blue infrastructure and the availability of benefits, as well as for building local knowledge and agency to inform future actions.
