Community‐based adaptation (CBA) has emerged over the last decade as an approach to empowering communities to plan for and cope with the impacts of climate change. While such approaches have been widely advocated, few have critically examined the tensions and challenges that CBA brings. Responding to this gap, this article critically examines the use of CBA approaches with Inuit communities in Canada. We suggest that CBA holds significant promise to make adaptation research more democratic and responsive to local needs, providing a basis for developing locally appropriate adaptations based on local/indigenous and Western knowledge. Yet, we argue that CBA is not a panacea, and its common portrayal as such obscures its limitations, nuances, and challenges. Indeed, if uncritically adopted, CBA can potentially lead to maladaptation, may be inappropriate in some instances, can legitimize outside intervention and control, and may further marginalize communities. We identify responsibilities for researchers engaging in CBA work to manage these challenges, emphasizing the centrality of how knowledge is generated, the need for project flexibility and openness to change, and the importance of ensuring partnerships between researchers and communities are transparent. Researchers also need to be realistic about what CBA can achieve, and should not assume that research has a positive role to play in community adaptation just because it utilizes participatory approaches.

加拿大北极地区基于社区的适应研究。
基于社区的适应(CBA)在过去十年中出现,作为一种增强社区能力来规划和应对气候变化影响的方法。虽然这种做法得到了广泛提倡,但很少有人批判性地审视 CBA 带来的紧张和挑战。针对这一差距,本文批判性地研究了 CBA 方法在加拿大因纽特人社区中的使用情况。我们认为,CBA 有望使适应研究更加民主并满足当地需求,为根据当地/土著和西方知识开发适合当地的适应措施奠定基础。然而,我们认为 CBA 并不是万能药,它的常见描述掩盖了它的局限性、细微差别和挑战。事实上,如果不加批判地采用 CBA,可能会导致适应不良,在某些情况下可能不合适,可能使外部干预和控制合法化,并可能进一步边缘化社区。我们确定了参与 CBA 工作的研究人员应对这些挑战的责任,强调知识生成方式的中心地位、项目灵活性和变革开放性的必要性,以及确保研究人员和社区之间伙伴关系透明的重要性。研究人员还需要对 CBA 能够实现的目标持现实态度,不应仅仅因为研究采用了参与式方法就认为它在社区适应方面可以发挥积极作用。《WIRE 气候变化2016》,7:175–191。doi:10.1002/wcc.376
