A Value-Driven Multi-Sector Stakeholder Decision-Making Framework to Support Disaster Resilient Communities

该项目提供了一个框架，以征求多部门利益攸关方与决策有关的价值观，以提高社区的抗灾能力。它将帮助决策者确定复原力战略的优先次序，系统地、定量地向他们展示利益攸关方将从不同战略中获得多少价值。这将提高利益攸关方的满意度，并使抗灾能力方面的决策更具协作性。它还将帮助决策者更好地与公众沟通参与韧性投资的决策，并使这些投资更加透明。这一科学研究的贡献，从而支持NSF的使命，以促进科学的进步和提高我们的国家福利。在这种情况下，其好处将是提高社区抗灾能力的见解，这将在未来拯救生命并减少经济损失。该项目的目标是通过创新的价值驱动框架，改善协作决策，提高社区的抗灾能力。为此，具体目标是：（1）确定和理解多部门利益攸关方关于抗灾能力的价值体系，（2）系统地汇总多部门利益攸关方的价值体系，同时考虑社会影响，（3）根据多部门利益攸关方汇总的价值优先事项，衡量备选抗灾能力决策对多部门利益攸关方的价值，以及（4）向决策者提供信息，使其了解如何在建设更具复原力的社区方面进行协作决策，以产生更广泛的影响。该研究将推进跨学科灾害文献中的理论和方法，以及利益相关者理论，为多部门利益相关者提供概念化和衡量复原力决策价值的新范式。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

This project provides a framework to solicit multi-sector stakeholder values related to decision-making to improve community disaster resilience. It will help decision-makers prioritize resilience strategies by showing them systematically and quantitatively how much value stakeholders will gain from different strategies. This will lead to higher levels of satisfaction among the stakeholders and enable more collaborative decision making in disaster resilience. It will also help decision-makers better communicate the decisions involved in resilience investments with the public and make these investments more transparent. This scientific research contribution thus supports NSF's mission to promote the progress of science and to advance our national welfare. In this case, the benefits will be insights to improve community disaster resilience, which will save lives and reduce economic losses in the future.The goal of this project is to improve collaborative decision making towards more resilient communities through an innovative value-driven framework. To this end, the specific objectives are to: (1) identify and understand multi-sector stakeholder value systems on disaster resilience, (2) systematically aggregate the value systems of multi-sector stakeholders while accounting for social influences, (3) measure the value of alternative disaster resilience decisions to multi-sector stakeholders based on their aggregated value priorities, and (4) inform decision-makers on collaborative decision making in building more resilient communities for wider impact. This research will advance theories and methods in the interdisciplinary disaster literature as well as stakeholder theory with a new paradigm for conceptualizing and measuring the value of resilience decisions to multi-sector stakeholders.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
