Title A name given to the resource Impact of climate adaption and resilience on mental and social wellbeing Subject The topic of the resource Climate adaption; Climate change; Mental well-being; Resilience; Social well-being Description An account of the resource According to United Nations Climate Change, adaptation refers to adjustments in ecological, social, or economic systems in response to actual or expected climatic stimuli and their effects. In contrast, resilience is all about being able to cope with unexpected or difficult circumstances and being able to persevere in the face of challenges, overcoming barriers and bouncing back after setbacks. While adaptability involves changing to manage under new conditions, resilience, through bouncing back, implies the ability to revert to a previous, more positive state after experiencing some difficulty or challenge. Marianne Hrabok (2020) The pathways through which extreme climate events affect mental health are numerous and include direct (e.g., exposure to trauma) and indirect (social, economic disruptions) routes (Ramadan and Ataallah, 2021). Climate-related catastrophes have significant impacts on the mental well-being of the populations involved, causing surges in cases of depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) primarily (Gina Martin, 2022). Studies suggest that the mental well-being impacts and negative emotions that stem from climate change awareness may be shared among child populations (Doherty &amp; Clayton, 2011). In addition to direct and indirect psychological impacts, climate change is likely to impact social and community relationships. Some of these impacts may result directly from changes in climate, but most are likely to be indirect results of shifts in how people use and occupy territory. The response to climatic change by any living organism or system is to adapt or be resilient. This chapter discusses the different types of adaptation and resilience strategies theoretically and successfully adopted by various countries in the world. These strategies have a remarkable impact on the mental and social well-being of its stakeholders. With the discussion on the impacts, this chapter will also suggest strategies to be adopted at an individual level to either adapt or resilience toward climatic change to enhance mental and social well-being at the same time. 2025 Elsevier Inc.
