Abstract

Donor-funded climate and disaster resilience programmes and projects aim to help build the capacities and resilience of communities. Measuring resilience is critical, therefore, in providing feedback, evidence, and accountability. This paper presents recent two-year time-series findings from an ongoing multi-partner academic and practical collaboration pertaining to a climate change adaption project with rural communities in Cambodia. To measure community resilience, the study used the Flood Resilience Measurement for Communities, which measures, using mixed methods, disaster resilience capacities across five key dimensions of resilience: human, social, physical, natural, and financial capitals. The study analysed and reported changes in these areas of resilience in the selected villages, generating insights into the strengths and weaknesses of flood resilience capacities in the region. This paper provides valuable guidance as to where investment can be most effective in different communities, confirming the usefulness of the tool in measuring resilience and assessing the effectiveness of the project concerned.

衡量社区抗灾能力,促进可持续的气候变化适应:从柬埔寨农村地区的时间序列调查结果中汲取的经验教训。
捐助者资助的气候和灾害复原力计划和项目旨在帮助社区建设能力和复原力。因此,衡量抗灾能力对于提供反馈、证据和问责至关重要。本文介绍了一个正在进行的多伙伴学术与实践合作项目的最新两年时间序列研究结果,该项目涉及柬埔寨农村社区的气候变化适应项目。为了衡量社区的抗灾能力,该研究采用了 "社区洪灾抗灾能力衡量标准"(Flood Resilience Measurement for Communities),该标准采用混合方法衡量抗灾能力的五个关键方面:人力资本、社会资本、物质资本、自然资本和金融资本。研究分析并报告了选定村庄在这些抗灾能力方面的变化,从而深入了解了该地区抗洪能力的强项和弱项。本文就投资在不同社区的哪些方面最为有效提供了宝贵的指导,证实了该工具在衡量抗灾能力和评估相关项目的有效性方面的实用性。
