ABSTRACT This paper explores how organised urban communities in Bangkok are planning for and responding to environmental and other crises, to identify approaches to fostering more sustainable, inclusive and resilient urban development. Lower-income residents may not have access to support systems such as disaster insurance, so being able to use existing assets can offer an opportunity for successful coping and adaptation strategies to future shocks. The study explores what actions are taken by lower-income residents to cope and adapt using their individual and collective assets in response to current and future hazards – especially in contexts where social capital is strong from a history of collective slum upgrading. It shows that such asset-based approaches can be an entry point for cooperation between these communities and other stakeholders, including local government, local NGOs and others, and there is scope to further strengthen asset-based adaptation approaches through legal and institutional measures.

集体和个人资产在建立城市社区适应力中的作用

摘要本文探讨了曼谷有组织的城市社区如何规划和应对环境和其他危机,以找出促进更可持续,更具包容性和复原力的城市发展的方法。低收入居民可能无法使用灾难保险等支持系统,因此能够使用现有资产可以为成功应对和适应未来的冲击提供机会。该研究探讨了低收入居民为应对当前和未来的危害而采取的行动,以利用其个人和集体资产来应对和适应,尤其是在集体贫民窟升级历史悠久的社会资本充裕的情况下。它表明,这种基于资产的方法可以成为这些社区与其他利益相关者之间合作的切入点,
