Putting adaptive planning into practice: A meta-analysis of current applications

摘要: Abstract Adaptive planning, as opposed to the conventional ‘predict-and-act’ approach, has emerged a paradigm increase resilience of our built environment and infrastructure systems. However, we have limited understanding broader governance that can enable or hinder adaptive planning. Research is dominated by individual case studies, which limits generalisability findings. We conducted meta-analysis 40 cases real-world application planning globally. assessed extent those processes adhered key elements an ‘ideal’ identified enablers barriers implementation. Our results show applications are far from ideal. The across all cases, tested for statistical significance, indicate enacting requires dedicated structures take on coordination brokering role, long-term investment strategies go beyond short-term budgetary cycles, transdisciplinary environments challenge simplistic assumptions entrenched in disciplinary experiences. also redefinition performance success indicators, delivering quick fix, onto longer term benefits be achieved through experimentation. conclude presenting makings meta-governance framework guide practice.
