- Expanding adaptive capacity: Innovations in education for place-based climate change adaptation planning (2024) · Geoforum · cited 27× · doi
Research asserts the key role formal education plays in increasing the learning and cognitive aspects of adaptive capacity and associated capabilities, but further work is required to understand the impacts of attempts to enact such changes, specifically in relation to climate change adaptation planning.

The current study sought to remedy these gaps in the literature by investigating the role of informal learning environments in sparking climate action.

The findings also reveal that the adaptive capacity in the study area is significantly moderate in terms of adaptation to climate change, and the adaptation strategies have focused on short-term action only limited by access to capital and infrastructure.
