Summary
• Understanding the socioeconomic, cultural, historical and political nuances of a place is essential for realising effective local decision-making for climate action. • People are central to understanding place-based risk and resilience, with consideration of inequality and vulnerability required for effec-tive place-based climate adaptation. • Temporality is important. Place is not fixed, but changes over time, together with the community that inhabits it. • Discussing and sharing community knowledge increases the likeli-hood of successful creation and implementation of climate adapta-tion practices. • A sense of place can be deployed to build connections between people, across policy and between scales.
