Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) can mitigate the impacts of climate change, build resilience and tackle environmental degradation thereby supporting the targets set by the 2030 Agenda, the Paris Agreement and the Sendai Framework. Despite these benefits, EbA is still rarely implemented in practice. To better understand the barriers to implementation, this research examines policy-makers' perceptions of EbA, using an extended version of Protection Motivation Theory as an analytical framework. Through semi-structured interviews with policy-makers at regional and provincial level in Central Vietnam, it was found that EbA is generally considered a promising response option, mainly due to its multiple ecosystem-service benefits. The demand for EbA measures was largely driven by the perceived consequences of natural hazards and climate change. Insufficient perceived response efficacy and time-lags in effectiveness for disaster risk reduction were identified as key impediments for implementation. Pilot projects and capacity building on EbA are important means to overcome these perceptual barriers. This paper contributes to bridging the knowledge-gap on political decision-making regarding EbA and can, thereby, promote its mainstreaming into policy plans.}, language = {en} } @article{HudsonPhamHagedoornetal.2020, author = {Hudson, Paul and Pham, My and Hagedoorn, Liselotte and Thieken, Annegret and Lasage, Ralph and Bubeck, Philip}, title = {Self-stated recovery from flooding}, series = {Journal of Flood Risk Management}, volume = {14}, journal = {Journal of Flood Risk Management}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {1753-318X}, doi = {10.1111/jfr3.12680}, pages = {15}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Social inequalities lead to flood resilience inequalities across social groups, a topic that requires improved documentation and understanding.
