“…Important aspects of enhancing the health and wellbeing of Las Palmeras' inhabitants were creating job opportunities, increasing self-esteem, deconstructing stigma, increasing the sense of safety, generating healthy habits, and creating green spaces for socialisation and healthy activities. The process evidenced that neighbours are aware of the importance of living in a healthier environment, having healthy habits, and feeling safe in public and green spaces without the threat of violence [79]. Other relevant aspects in our context were the role of empowerment in self-esteem and openness to change (new opportunities) [80].…”

Rapid urbanisation exacerbates health and wellbeing disparities in vulnerable contexts and underscores the imperative need to develop innovative and participatory co-creation approaches to understand and address the specificities of these contexts. This paper presents a method to develop an assessment framework that integrates top-down dimensions with bottom-up perspectives to monitor the impact of inclusive health and wellbeing interventions tailored to the neighbourhood’s needs in Las Palmeras, a vulnerable neighbourhood in Cordoba (Spain). Drawing upon studies in the literature examining urban health and wellbeing trends, it delineates a participatory and inclusive framework, emphasising the need for context-specific indicators and assessment tools. Involving diverse stakeholders, including residents and professionals, it enriches the process and identifies key indicators and assessment methods. This approach provides valuable insights for managing innovative solutions, aligning them with local expectations, and measuring their impact. It contributes to the discourse on inclusive urban health by advocating for participatory, context-specific strategies and interdisciplinary collaboration. While not universally applicable, the framework offers a model for health assessment in vulnerable contexts, encouraging further development of community-based tools for promoting inclusive wellbeing.

“…While indices are useful, they should express the welfare of societal groups in terms of resilience and recovery capacity, impacts of rare events, and distributional impacts [96]. As these involve many variables, studies of social impacts tend to focus on case studies in different countries [97][98][99].…”

Losses from flood disasters are increasing globally due to climate-driven forces and human factors such as migration and land use changes. The risks of such floods involve multiple factors and stakeholders, and frameworks for integrated approaches have attracted a global community of experts. The paper reviews the knowledge base for integrated flood risk management frameworks, including more than twenty bibliometric reviews of their elements. The knowledge base illustrates how integrated strategies for the reduction of flood risk are required at different scales and involve responses ranging from climate and weather studies to the construction of infrastructure, as well as collective action for community resilience. The Integrated Flood Management framework of the Associated Programme on Flood Management of the World Meteorological Organization was developed more than twenty years ago and is explained in some detail, including how it fits within the Integrated Water Resources Management concept that is managed by the Global Water Partnership. The paper reviews the alignment of the two approaches and how they can be used in tandem to reduce flood losses. Success of both integrated management approaches depends on governance and institutional capacity as well as technological advances. The knowledge base for flood risk management indicates how technologies are advancing, while more attention must be paid to social and environmental concerns, as well as government measures to increase participation, awareness, and preparedness. Ultimately, integrated flood management will involve solutions tailored for individual situations, and implementation may be slow, such that perseverance and political commitment will be needed.

“…The challenges associated with these differences are further complicated by the lack of sharing cross-organisational perspectives and interrelationship of the involved issues [15], too. Traditional activities to elicit information from stakeholders include ( [16][17][18][19]: (i) via surveys and questionnaires (an example is [20]; (ii) via interviews (an example is [21]; (iii) via structured workshops (an example is [22]; or via a combination of surveys, workshop and focus groups (an example is [23]. In addition [24], applied serious gaming principles to elicit information from experts in infrastructure resilience.…”
