摘要:
安置与迁移是最难以实施的政策之一,但无论是在灾前还是灾后,它们可能是减少受自然灾害威胁地区未来风险的最佳途径。随着气候相关灾害和被迫迁移在全球范围内变得越来越普遍,各国政府、人道主义或发展机构以及政策制定者现在必须将实施体面且有效的安置计划作为其规划和管理职责的重要内容。这一计划的有效性在很大程度上依赖于利益相关者和受益者对安置各个阶段、受影响人群的文化习俗、活动,以及相关的实施挑战、成本和收益的理解与认知。严肃游戏在许多情境中被用来提高人们的意识、培训利益相关者和受益者并提升其能力。本文介绍了一个严肃游戏,旨在教导从业者、地方机构、学生和公众去了解成功安置中涉及的复杂性与挑战。这个游戏基于一个真实的安置项目,该项目是在2023年3月台风弗雷迪导致马拉维南部的奇拉祖卢地区发生大范围洪水和山体滑坡后启动的,部分村庄因此被迫永久迁移。该游戏由六个主要关卡组成:土地和安置预备工作、住房和生计、水、卫生与健康、教育、保护。这些关卡按安置原则依次完成。通过参与这个桌面棋盘形式的严肃游戏,玩家可以理解安置活动的顺序及其相关的实践(技术层面与社会层面)和财务方面的挑战。

Abstract:
Resettlement and relocation are among the most difficult policies to put into practice, but they may be the best ways to minimize future risks to settlements exposed to natural hazards both before and after disaster events. As climate-related disasters and forced migration become increasingly common worldwide, governments, humanitarian or development actors, and policymakers must now prioritize the implementation of a dignified and effective resettlement program as part of their planning and management responsibilities. Much of this effectiveness depends on the stakeholders and beneficiaries’ understanding and knowledge of the different resettlement phases, culture and customs of affected populations, activities, and the associated implementation challenges, costs, and benefits. Serious games are used in a variety of contexts to increase awareness, train and build capacity in stakeholders and beneficiaries. This article presents a serious game developed to educate practitioners, local agencies, students, and the public to understand the complexities and challenges involved in a successful resettlement. The game is based on a real proposed resettlement project initiated in the Chiradzulu District in southern Malawi after Cyclone Freddy in March 2023, which caused widespread flooding and landslides, forcing some villages to relocate permanently. The progression in the Road to Resettlement Game consists of six primary levels: land and site preparation, housing and livelihood, water, sanitation, and hygiene, health, education, and protection. These levels are meant to be completed in a sequence that adheres to the principles of resettlement. By engaging in the serious table-top board game, players gain an understanding of the resettlement activities, their sequence, and the associated practical (technical and social) and financial challenges.
