As planned relocation becomes an increasingly utilized climate adaptation strategy, guidance for effective practice consistently emphasizes the importance of “community” engagement throughout relocation planning, decision-making, and implementation. Yet “community” is not a monolith operating in consensus, where engagement is achieved simply through the interaction of internal and external actors. To move beyond this binary paradigm where community engagement is a box to be checked, we offer a conceptual framework with three key questions for consideration for those operationalizing community engagement strategies in relocation policy and practice. 1) 2) ? 3) What is ? As part of this framework, we introduce the overlooked role of actors bridging community and facilitation worlds, here called and how they can enhance or hinder meaningful engagement. Finally, we explore novel approaches for researchers and practitioners to advance context-specific engagement before, during, and after climate-related relocation processes to promote genuine self-determination among those relocating.

使“社区”参与变得复杂：应对与气候相关的计划搬迁中难以捉摸的概念


随着计划搬迁成为越来越多地使用的气候适应战略，有效实践指南始终强调“社区”参与整个搬迁规划、决策和实施的重要性。然而，“社区”并不是一个以共识运作的整体，其中的参与只是通过内部和外部参与者的互动来实现。为了超越这种社区参与是一个需要检查的二元范式，我们提供了一个概念框架，其中包含三个关键问题，供那些在搬迁政策和实践中实施社区参与策略的人考虑。 1) 2) ? 3）什么是？作为该框架的一部分，我们介绍了连接社区和促进世界的参与者的被忽视的角色，以及他们如何增强或阻碍有意义的参与。最后，我们为研究人员和从业者探索了新的方法，以在与气候相关的搬迁过程之前、期间和之后促进针对具体情况的参与，以促进搬迁人员真正的自决。
