abstract = "This study addresses risk, vulnerability, and their implications
for the adaptation of communities to the problems they face in the
everyday life and to those derived from climate change. Based on
the literature about risk, vulnerability and adaptation to
disasters and on a case study conducted in the Northern coast of
S{\~a}o Paulo - Brazil, we summarize the converging themes in the
analysis of vulnerability and adaptation to climate change, which
are divided in three components: (i) interdisciplinarity for
studies about environment and society, requiring multiscale
analysis, (ii) the integration of land use management instruments,
and (iii) risk governance and communication. Based on the results
of a risk perception survey (914 interviewees), we analyze
vulnerability according to three interconnected axes (physical
risk, social vulnerability and protagonism) by emphasizing the
role played by the population in face of physical risk situations,
as a way to guide integrated and participatory work efforts to
encourage the engagement of the population to cope with and reduce
the risks derived from historical and recurrent problems - such as
poverty, social and spatial segregation - or with those that are
about to come, such as climate changes.",
