Abstract

ABSTRACT Adaptive Pathways (APs) enable holistic preparedness for infrastructure assets management across their life cycle, especially in face of disasters. Affected rural communities lose their habitat, food and livelihoods, and access to connectivity. Nevertheless, they can still take ownership and contribute in developing APs for building resilient infrastructure and enhancing combined resilience (physical, economic, community). A coding-based weighted model is used to analyse 8 Case Studies. Key findings are: (a) Strengthening of communities and local institutions through capacity building (communications APs) from inception is prerequisite for combined resilience. This is significant even in absence of other AP factors including evidence-based policy, governance, innovation; (b) Capacity building should focus on designing local resource-based approaches [LRBA], nature-based solutions [NBS], and community indigenous knowledge thereby improving other AP factors; (c) Policy formulation on asset management and quality assurance should be pre-requisite for mobilisation and funds allocation to strengthen community-led APs for combined resilience.

加强以社区为主导的适应性途径的发展，以实现亚洲及太平洋地区农村抗灾基础设施

自适应路径(APs)使基础设施资产管理在其整个生命周期中，特别是面对灾害时，能够全面做好准备。受影响的农村社区失去了栖息地、粮食和生计，也失去了网络连接。尽管如此，他们仍然可以承担责任，并为开发具有弹性的基础设施和增强综合弹性(物理、经济、社区)做出贡献。采用基于编码的加权模型对8个案例进行分析。主要发现有:(a)从一开始就通过能力建设(通信ap)加强社区和地方机构是综合抗灾能力的先决条件。即使没有其他AP因素，包括循证政策、治理、创新;(b)能力建设应侧重于设计基于地方资源的方法(LRBA)、基于自然的解决方案(NBS)和社区本土知识，从而改善其他AP因素;(c)为加强社区主导的行动计划，加强综合应变能力，应以制订资产管理和质素保证政策为先决条件，并分配资金。

期刊介绍： Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure is an interdisciplinary journal that focuses on the sustainable development of resilient communities. Sustainability is defined in relation to the ability of infrastructure to address the needs of the present without sacrificing the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Resilience is considered in relation to both natural hazards (like earthquakes, tsunami, hurricanes, cyclones, tornado, flooding and drought) and anthropogenic hazards (like human errors and malevolent attacks.) Resilience is taken to depend both on the performance of the built and modified natural environment and on the contextual characteristics of social, economic and political institutions. Sustainability and resilience are considered both for physical and non-physical infrastructure.
