Experiences with natural hazards risk assessment in Indigenous coastal communities in British Columbia / M. Heideman, C. Cook, and R.K. Sterritt.: M183-2/8573E-PDF
"This report provides an illustration of three Indigenous coastal communities' reflections on community planning and risk assessment in response to the natural hazards each community is facing. The Gitga'at First Nation, Tsleil-Waututh Nation, and the Ucluelet First Nation shared their reflections at a session during the 2018 Canadian Risks and Hazard Network symposium in Vancouver. The main outcomes of group discussions during this session are presented in this paper. The overarching goal of the paper is to identify gaps and opportunities between science and practice, which can help navigate a path forward for different levels of government to work together to assess and plan for natural hazards, thereby creating sustainable and resilient communities"--Introduction, page 8.
