Abstract
As the climate crisis leads to increasingly frequent extreme weather events such as heatwaves and cold spells. Climate change has adversely affected physical health of people globally and mental health of people in the assessed regions. Regional are formulation of climate crisis adaptation measures to mitigate vulnerability and enhance resilience against health impacts and natural disasters. MOTIVE and VESTAP are used at formulation of climate crisis adaptation measures, but there are limitations in using them by local governments as it is difficult to understand and use the model and is limited in interpreting the results. While MOTIVE and VESTAP are evaluated based on their specific objectives, existing literature suggests that they can be effectively employed in a complementary manner. In this study, the first objective is to explore the potential for integrated application by focusing on similar items within the health sector of MOTIVE and VESTAP. The second objective is to examine methods for linking MOTIVE values with VESTAP for the combined utilization of similar evaluation items. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the identification of future climate risks based on impact and vulnerability assessments, thereby supporting the formulation of adaptation measures at both Municipal-Level and Lower local Governments levels. Furthermore, regions demonstrating elevated scores across MOTIVE, VESTAP, and their integrated application may be classified as priority areas for the adaptation measures, thereby facilitating a reduction in the adverse impacts associated with climate crisis.
