Community Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change Based on Socio-Cultural Perspective
Main Article Content
Abstract
Climate change affects all societies around the world, with impacts varying greatly depending on the social, cultural and economic conditions of each community. Communities develop adaptation strategies based on their local knowledge and traditions, but the implementation of these strategies is often hampered by inequalities in access to information and technology. Local knowledge, which is rich in disaster survival experiences, is a key foundation for adaptation strategies, but successful implementation is also highly dependent on policy support that is sensitive to local cultural values. While modern technology has the potential to strengthen adaptive capacity, it is often not easily accepted by more conservative communities. Social inequalities in access to resources and knowledge also create barriers that exacerbate adaptation gaps between groups. It is important to create more inclusive policies that ensure all levels of community can participate in climate change adaptation strategies. This study concludes that the integration of traditional knowledge and modern technology, as well as policies that take into account socio-cultural diversity, are essential to increase community resilience to climate change.
