Abstract:	The natural hazards and influence of climate change are uncertain. Supporting adaptation management strategies therefore requires a strong research basis, including prediction and vulnerability assessments. However, the practical value of research results tends to be under explored because of the lack of channel through which to apply the results. This study suggests means of strengthening local adaptation strategies and reducing social vulnerability by encouraging communities to work together to deal with the threat of climate change. We highlight the balance among built-environmental sensitivity and human adaptability dimensions, thereby emphasizing social vulnerability and addressing social resilience from risk perception perspectives. On the basis of the concept of vulnerability and the driver-pressure-state-impact-response (DPSIR) causal framework, semi-structured interviews were designed to explore social resilience. We discuss how a knowledge gap can lead to social vulnerability and maladaptation. In addition, we propose the prototype of a decision-making tool for facilitating adaptation by emphasizing a co-design process between residents and decision makers.
