Measuring Climate Adaptation Success and Progress: Introduction to the Resilience Metrics Toolkit
Date/Time: Wed, Nov 18, 2020 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM EST
One of the most challenging parts of advancing climate adaptation is defining what success looks like and tracking progress toward those goals. Over the past six years, a group of National Estuarine Research Reserves has been finding creative ways to tackle this problem in their own communities through the Successful Adaptation Indicators and Metrics project. The team recently launched a new web-based toolkit – Resilience Metrics (https://resiliencemetrics.org/) – which shares a suite of lessons learned, tools and tactics to help communities identify locally relevant climate adaptation metrics.
In this webinar, two members of the project team will share their experiences and lessons learned with defining climate adaptation success – conceptually and in practice. They will introduce the resources available on the Resilience Metrics toolkit and explain how the case studies, job aids and facilitation tools can be used by coastal managers and adaptation professionals everywhere to facilitate conversations and planning around successful adaptation.
