Abstract

In
this study, we examine and evaluate local knowledge to develop an integrated participatory
model for spatial planning.  We used participatory
approaches in Düzce province to enhance risk communication, and to obtain the local
point of view related to natural hazards and vulnerabilities through
collaborative workshop techniques.  We integrated
multi-knowledge sources including geoecological research data and local expert knowledge,
and including the results of questionnaire surveys’ analyses from workshops and
town-watch exercise. This paper presents integrated information that can be useful
in risk communication, and valuable analyses in terms of stakeholders’
responsibilities and sources in disaster risk reduction towards resilience.

Abstract

Bu çalışma kapsamında katılımcı mekânsal planlama
için, Düzce İli’nin doğal yapı hassasiyetleri, tehlike ve risklerine ilişkin
farkındalığını sağlamak, afet risk azaltma ve risk iletişiminin sürdürülebilirliğini
arttırmak üzere odak grup çalışmaları yapılmıştır.  Odak gruplarına, doğal yapı hassasiyetleri ve
tehlike verilerine dayalı bütünleşik değerlendirme sonuçları paylaşılmış ve
farkındalıkları hakkında geri bildirim alınmıştır.  Masabaşı anket ve mahalle risk tespit saha
çalışmaları ile katılımcıların riskleri İl ve yerel düzeyde derecelendirilmeleri
istenmiştir.  Bu makalede yerel bilgi ve
jeoekolojik verilerin bütünleştirilmesinin yanısıra afet risk azaltmadaki
sorumluluklar ve kaynaklar bakımından katılımcıların değerlendirmeleri ile
ilgili dikkat çekici bulgular sunulmaktadır.
