The Project
The Malibu Foundation is collaborating with the Resource Conservation District, Climate Resolve, the Los Angeles Emergency Preparedness Foundation, LA County, and local universities to prepare a community-based climate vulnerability assessment and resilience plan for the region, with a special focus on extreme heat and fire, and an emphasis on the most vulnerable populations — including day laborers and seniors. The region is defined as the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) communities of Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Malibu (City and unincorporated), the Palisades, Topanga and Westlake Village.
The community survey is an opportunity to document individual social and structural capacities and challenges to living in the local WUI area. In addition to the vulnerability assessment, the research team is producing a comprehensive inventory of community assets, a gap analysis of the local region’s capacity to respond to the shocks and stressors of climate change, and an actionable report with mitigation and adaptation recommendations for the local communities and municipalities to adopt and build upon.
