Many urban communities have emerged in Auckland as a result of international migration. A significant concern for these communities is the relocation from an environment of known risks and familial support to an unfamiliar environment. The concern is essential because of the hazardous landscape of Auckland and the expected impact of climate change, which is anticipated to increase the vulnerability of at‐risk communities. This research investigates how the African community could enhance its resilience to the challenges that may be posed by a potential disaster. Interviews with participants from two African communities were the source of data collection. The interview data were analyzed using the general inductive method for qualitative data analysis. The research discusses emergent themes in line with prior research on community resilience. This research suggests an improvement in community risk awareness, compensation mechanism, capacity building, and community cohesion to improve resilience. The success of these findings depends on the extent to which government agencies address them in future planning for resilience.

灾难风险和增强奥克兰非洲社区抗灾力的前景

由于国际移民，奥克兰出现了许多城市社区。这些社区关注的一个主要问题是从已知风险和家庭支持的环境迁移到陌生的环境。由于奥克兰的危险地貌和气候变化的预期影响，人们的关注至关重要，而气候变化的预期影响将增加高风险社区的脆弱性。这项研究调查了非洲社区如何增强其对潜在灾害可能带来的挑战的抵御能力。来自两个非洲社区的参与者的访谈是数据收集的来源。使用通用归纳法对访谈数据进行定性数据分析。该研究讨论了与先前有关社区适应力的研究相一致的新兴主题。这项研究表明，社区风险意识，补偿机制，能力建设和社区凝聚力的提高可提高抵御力。这些发现的成功取决于政府机构在未来的弹性计划中对这些问题的处理程度。
