4) 발표 내용

Adaptation policy differs from conventional policy domains due to its scientific complexity, deep uncertainties, and multi-level decision context, which demand robust evidence-based decision-making. Early adaptation efforts often relied on supply-driven climate data and projections, but these proved insufficient without clear links to impacts and socio-economic vulnerabilities. This has led to a persistent “last-mile” gap, where climate science fails to inform local decision-making effectively. In response, there is growing demand for climate services that emphasize user relevance and actionability. This study develops a co-production framework to generate actionable heat-risk information for urban adaptation. We investigate (i) which information types are most salient for heat-related decisions, (ii) how co-production enhances usability, and (iii) what is needed to support evidence-based policy. The framework defines five information domains: observed climate data, climate-change scenarios, socio-economic and vulnerability metrics, integrated risk assessments, and adaptation-option evidence. These are co-produced through both research-driven and citizen-participatory processes. We assess the usability, uptake, and policy influence of these information types through mixed-methods evaluation, including expert surveys and planning workflow analysis. By translating complex scientific outputs into context-specific formats, the study bridges the science-policy gap and supports more locally appropriate, equitable, and effective adaptation strategies.
