Abstract
Prof Patrick Nunn of the University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia gave a presentation on risk and resilience in the Pacific—community exposure and response to climate change. In his presentation, he discussed a case study that was conducted to inform improved interventions for climate change adaptation in developing-world communities. The was by (i) demonstrating the diversity of community exposure rather than assuming that “one-size-fits-all”; and (ii), showing the existence and diversity of culturally-grounded community coping in communities. In these ways, a better understanding of risk and resilience among communities who participated in the study has been obtained.
