本文开发了一种在偏远、资源依赖型社区进行气候变化适应规划的方法。这些方法是使用脆弱性框架构建的，社区成员、当地利益相关者和研究人员参与迭代规划过程，以识别、描述、优先考虑和试点适应行动。这些方法包括：（1）二手信息来源分析，（2）社区合作和伙伴关系建设，（3）适应规划研讨会，（4）适应计划制定，（5）关键信息提供者和社区审查以及（6）试点适应行动。气候变化的脆弱性是在其他非气候因素——社会、政治、经济和环境——的背景下进行评估的，这些因素已经在社区中经历过，并影响着人们如何经历和应对气候变化。在社区的五个部门中确定了关键的暴露敏感性和相关的适应方案：商业和经济、文化和学习、健康和福祉、自给自足的收获以及交通和基础设施。该组织允许各部门的相关利益相关者和专家进行集中讨论和参与。该方法应用于位于加拿大西北地区 (NWT) 因纽特定居点地区 (ISR) 的因纽特社区保拉图克 (Paulatuk)，并重点介绍了主要发现。所开发的方法对于偏远、资源依赖型社区的适应规划具有重要的经验教训，并有助于在气候变化的人类层面的方法学方面开展少量但不断增长的学术研究。
This paper develops a methodology for climate change adaptation planning in remote, resource-dependent communities. The methods are structured using a vulnerability framework, and community members, local stakeholders and researchers are engaged in an iterative planning process to identify, describe, prioritize and pilot adaptation actions. The methods include: (1) analysis of secondary sources of information, (2) community collaboration and partnership building, (3) adaptation planning workshops, (4) adaptation plan development, (5) key informant and community review and (6) pilot adaptation actions. Vulnerability to climate change is assessed in the context of other non-climatic factors—social, political, economic and environmental, already being experienced in communities and which influence how climate change is experienced and responded to. Key exposure-sensitivities and related adaptation options are identified in five sectors of a community: business and economy, culture and learning, health and well-being, subsistence harvesting, and transportation and infrastructure. This organization allows for focused discussions and the involvement of relevant stakeholders and experts from each sector. The methodology is applied in Paulatuk, an Inuit community located in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR), Northwest Territories (NWT), Canada, and key findings are highlighted. The methods developed have important lessons for adaptation planning in remote, resource-dependent communities generally and contributes to a small but growing scholarship on methodology in the human dimensions of climate change.
