Adaptation to Coastal Storms in Atlantic Canada
Adaptation to Coastal Storms in Atlantic Canada
Thisbriefis based on an analysis that was performed on the 2010 winter storms that caused considerable damage to coastal communities in Atlantic Canada. The hazards thatoccurredwere associated with storm surge, high waves,coastal erosion, and flooding. The analysis covered a largemultisitelongitudinal project, where a participatory action research (PAR) approachwas usedto understand how people in10coastal communities perceive and experience extreme weather events and to enhance their capacity to adapt and improve their resilience. Thisbriefexposes the outcome of two series of interviews and activities that were conducted during the project, as well as the lessons learned,and general elements that should be considered when researchers collaborate with communities to define adaptation and resilience strategies.It makes an important contribution to the application of PAR as an integrated (social-ecological) approach to resilience and how such an approachcan be adaptedalsoto other communities.
