Networked-politics of science and policy on disasters and climate change in Southeast Asia

由于气候变化加速了灾害的发生，东南亚的可持续发展面临风险。尽管有科学技术可用，但风险治理并未实现真正的复原力建设。这项研究调查了东盟机制的政治架构和进程是否使减少灾害风险和适应气候变化(DRR/CCA)政策的制定能够包容科学和技术进步。通过网络分析，通过国家政策和区域资源调动，确定了各种关于DRR/CCA的国际和区域协议的部分一致性。本研究产生了区域风险治理的组织间网络、知识网络、话语网络和科学政策网络。这包括东盟灾难期间和灾后的组织间网络、研究知识网络和展示人道主义系统障碍和挑战的话语网络。这项研究发现了两个限制科学-政策互动的关键问题。第一，在将一次性和方案能力建设投资转化为灾害管理专业化方面存在差距。第二，分散和分散的知识管理设施/平台的可用性。作为一项行动研究，成果不仅在学术论坛上传播，而且通过直接参与东盟的决策和能力建设来传播。为了解决这些问题，该研究启发开发了一个基于网络的知识管理工具，用于编织复原力建设的科学、政策和行动网络。

Sustainable development in Southeast Asia is at risk due to disasters accelerated by climate change. Despite science and technology availability, risk governance has not enabled genuine resilience building. The research investigated whether political architecture and processes of ASEAN mechanisms enable disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation (DRR/CCA) policy formulation to embrace science and technology advancement. It also identified partial coherence of various international and regional agreements on DRR/CCA through national policy and regional resource mobilizations using network analyses.This research generated inter-organizational network, knowledge network, discourse network, and science-policy network on regional risk governance. This includes inter-organizational network during and after disasters in ASEAN, knowledge network of research, and discourse network showcasing barriers and challenges of humanitarian system. The research found two key problems limiting science-policy interactions. First, gaps in translating one-off and programmatic capacity building investments into disaster management professionalization. Second, scattered and fragmented knowledge management facilities/platforms availability and usability.As an action-research, the outputs disseminated not only at academic forums, but also through direct engagement at policymaking and capacity building of ASEAN. To solve the problems, the research inspired a web-based knowledge management tool for knitting networks of science, policy, and actions for resilience building was developed.
