Before Flood Interweaving situated performance

项目摘要

This research project involves a partnership between two networks from the 2010/11 AHRC ‘Researching Environmental change’ programme. The ‘Performance Footprint’ network brings expertise in using site-specific performance to promote awareness of environmental change in diverse settings. The ‘Living Flood Histories’ network has explored how situated flood narrative and memorialisation practices can bring new insights in how to engage public groups, at changing flood risk. This proposed 12 month project responds to an invitation from the Environment Agency (EA) to explore how situated performance and flood narratives might be used to engage ‘hard to reach’ urban floodplain groups, at risk from flooding but without recent flood experience. Such groups may be disconnected in both physical and human terms (e.g. divided by urban planning, lacking in community cohesion), proving unresponsive to recent policy initiatives emphasising the importance of community-led adaptation planning in dealing with flood risk. This project aims to stimulate awareness of these issues, and encourage local resilience-building, by researching and facilitating two inter-related, site-specific performance events, in direct collaboration with local volunteers. The chosen sites in Bristol (Eastville) and Bradford (Shipley) have been identified by the EA, and feature heavily canalised watercourses partly hidden from public view. The research process will begin by reviewing the findings of the contributing research networks, and considering their application in the project context. How might situated narratives and performances best be framed to encourage local engagement with flood risk? Can the ‘after the flood’ memorialisation practices of other communities be used as a creative means to inform ‘before the flood’ resilience-building in the chosen site contexts? Can creative participation be employed as a means for: developing and enhancing ‘a watery sense of place’; exploring uncertainty around future climate scenarios; understanding issues around ‘distributed responsibility’ for flood risk response. Local engagement strategies will be developed in collaboration with facilitation experts. Volunteer participants will be involved in a project development period, with regular creative workshops and discussions extrapolating the research concerns. A key objective will be to use the process of working towards creative outcomes to help generate a context in which expert and local knowledges are equally valued. Dialogues will be facilitated between local participants, flood scientists and other experts, EA and local council representatives. The development period will lead towards participatory public performance events, presented in the context of festive community gatherings (e.g. street parties). A model of ‘distributed performance’ will be pioneered, involving a range of interconnected presentations offered by various groups and individuals in different microsites within the floodplain vicinity. This will maximise potential for local involvement, and emphasise the ecological theme of connectivity between people and places. Responses to these events among residents will be sought, and the outcomes of the two projects cross-referred, in order to develop research findings. Project outcomes will be captured and disseminated through: a guidance/action pack for potential future users; interdisciplinary research articles and presentations; documentation presented on collaborating networks’ websites. The research results will be of interest to a wide range of disciplines and professions: researchers in theatre/performance studies, physical and cultural geography, social history; professionals in flood risk management (EA, local authorities); social engagement professionals. Attention will be given to how the research can generate sustainable follow-through in the case study settings, and how the research outcomes are cascaded to other urban flood risk groups.

该研究项目涉及澳大利亚人权委员会2010/11年度“研究环境变化”方案的两个网络之间的伙伴关系。“绩效足迹”网络带来了使用特定地点绩效的专业知识，以提高人们对不同环境中环境变化的认识。“活生生的洪水历史”网络探索了洪水叙述和纪念实践如何在不断变化的洪水风险中为如何吸引公众团体带来新的见解。这个为期12个月的项目是应环境局（EA）的邀请，探讨如何利用位置性能和洪水叙述来吸引“难以到达”的城市洪泛区群体，这些群体面临洪水风险，但没有最近的洪水经验。这些群体可能在物质和人文方面都存在脱节（例如，因城市规划而分裂，缺乏社区凝聚力），从而对最近强调社区主导的适应规划在应对洪水风险方面重要性的政策举措反应迟钝。该项目旨在通过与当地志愿者直接合作，研究和促进两个相互关联的、针对具体地点的表演活动，激发人们对这些问题的认识，并鼓励地方建立守法意识。环境署已确定了位于布里斯托（伊斯特维尔）和布拉德福德（希普利）的选定地点，这些地点的特点是部分隐藏在公众视野之外的严重运河水道。研究过程将从审查贡献研究网络的调查结果并考虑其在项目背景中的应用开始开始。如何最好地构建情景叙事和表演，以鼓励当地参与洪水风险？其他社区的“洪水后”纪念做法能否作为一种创造性手段，在选定的地点环境中为“洪水前”的守法建设提供信息？创造性的参与可以作为一种手段：发展和加强“水的地方感”;探索未来气候情景的不确定性;理解洪水风险应对的“分布式责任”问题。将与促进专家合作制定地方参与战略。志愿者参与者将参与项目开发期间，定期举办创意研讨会和讨论，推断研究问题。一个关键目标将是利用努力取得创造性成果的进程，帮助创造一种专家知识和当地知识得到同等重视的环境。将促进当地参与者、洪水科学家和其他专家、环境署和当地理事会代表之间的对话。发展期将导致参与性的公共表演活动，在节日社区集会（如街头聚会）的背景下进行。一个“分布式性能”的模型将率先，涉及一系列相互关联的演示文稿提供的各种团体和个人在不同的微型网站内的洪泛区附近。这将最大限度地发挥当地参与的潜力，并强调人与地之间的生态联系。将征求居民对这些事件的反应，并将两个项目的结果相互参照，以得出研究结果。项目成果将通过以下方式收集和传播：面向未来潜在用户的指导/行动包;跨学科研究文章和介绍;在合作网络网站上提供的文件。研究结果将是感兴趣的广泛的学科和专业：研究人员在戏剧/表演研究，自然和文化地理，社会历史;专业人员在洪水风险管理（EA，地方当局）;社会参与的专业人士。将注意研究如何能够产生可持续的后续通过案例研究设置，以及研究成果如何级联到其他城市洪水风险群体。
