Abstract
This research identifies ways community dialogue can inform natural disaster mitigation planning. We use stakeholder analysis to explore indirect public engagement related to flooding in three U.S. cities (Tulsa, OK; Fayetteville, AR; and Waco, TX). Using publicly available data, we identify the types of stakeholders and potential motivating factors leading them to contribute to community discourse. We find a wide range of engaged stakeholders representing governments, organizations, groups, and individuals directly and indirectly impacted by a natural disaster. These results provide information valuable for tailoring direct engagement efforts to reach residents not participating in the discussion, especially those with elevated vulnerabilities or untapped resources who can co-produce flood mitigation strategies designed to make their property and public infrastructure more flood-resilient and improve community sustainability.
