As the global climate shifts, communities are faced with a myriad
of mitigation and adaptation challenges. These highlight the
political, cultural, economic, social, and physical vulnerability
of social groups, communities, families, and individuals. They also
foster resilience and creative responses. Research in hazard
management, humanitarian response, food security programming, and
other areas seeks to identify and understand factors that create
vulnerability and strategies that enhance resilience at all levels
of social organization. This book uses case studies from around the
globe to demonstrate ways that communities have fostered resilience
to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
