Towards a bottom-up approach to climate risk—learnings from an interdisciplinary dialogue

Le résumé fourni par la source

Abstract This article analyzes an interdisciplinary process carried out between 2022 and 2025 within the Argentina Hub of the My Climate Risk World Climate Research Programme lighthouse activity, aimed at developing a bottom-up understanding of climate risk. Bringing together researchers from the physical and anthropological sciences, the dialogue exposed contrasting ways of defining and mobilizing the notion of risk. This led to a sustained exploration of how climate information intersects with the historically grounded social-territorial configurations in which climate risk takes shape. Through a range of activities, the Hub examined how the notion of risk is constructed when approached from different disciplinary perspectives, informing a more situated and multidimensional framing of climate risk. The article reconstructs this trajectory and the insights that emerged, highlighting how interdisciplinary engagement can expand the possibilities for generating climate risk knowledge attuned to local and regional contexts.
