快速城市化和气候变化共同增加了城市贫困社区对自然灾害的脆弱性，削弱了城市的复原力。因此，确定并加深我们对主要变量及其之间复杂的相互作用的理解至关重要，这些变量产生并塑造了城市贫困社区对自然灾害的脆弱性。确定挑战或支持这些社区应对灾害的因素也有助于制定城市韧性的政策。为了发展这种认识，有必要在地方尺度上进行详细的研究。本文旨在通过将参与式建模技术应用于南非德班一个非正式定居点的特定案例研究，为这方面的知识做出贡献。其目的是阐明这一详细的实证研究如何有助于在面对气候变化和快速城市化的城市脆弱性和复原力方面获得更广泛的理论知识。
Rapid urbanization and climate change together increase the vulnerability of poor urban communities to natural hazards, undermining urban resilience. It is therefore critical to identify and deepen our understanding of the main variables, and the complex interactions between them, producing and shaping the vulnerability of poor urban communities to natural hazards. Identifying factors that challenge or support the efforts of these communities in responding to hazards is also helpful in policymaking for urban resilience. To develop this understanding, it is necessary to conduct detailed research at the local scale. This paper aims to contribute to this knowledge by applying participatory modelling techniques to a particular case study of an informal settlement in Durban, South Africa. The aim is to elucidate how this detailed empirical research can contribute to broader theoretical knowledge on urban vulnerability and resilience in the face of climate change and rapid urbanization.
