EcoAdapt’s Climate Adaptation Starter Kit includes our top list of resources, tools, and adaptation examples to get you started. It is not intended to be fully comprehensive, but to provide a compilation of what we have found most practical and useful for planning, developing, and implementing climate adaptation.

The Climate Adaptation Starter Kit is divided into six parts:

1. Vulnerability Assessment - resources for climate change vulnerability, risk and impact assessment.
2. Adaptation Frameworks - processes to guide the development of climate change adaptation strategies.
3. Adaptation Portals and Tools - a sampling of climate adaptation portals, tools, and resources.
4. Examples of Adaptation Projects - climate change adaptation case studies.
5. Getting Started - where to begin, working with what you already have, and avoiding maladaptation.
6. Evaluation and Monitoring - on how adaptation programs are succeeding.
