| Summary | The Map of Adaptation Actions houses a collection of climate change adaptation examples that provide useful information to decision-makers and those taking action on climate change adaptation. This searchable, interactive map began as a way to explore the case stories that are included in reports under the national assessment process, Canada in a Changing Climate: Advancing our Knowledge for Action. The Map also includes examples from a variety of other sources in Canada, including federal programs, provincial and territorial programs, municipalities, Indigenous communities and organizations, non-governmental organizations, and academia, among others. Examples are from various regions and sectors, represent different stages of the adaptation cycle, and address a variety of climate-related impacts. This Map is intended for use by decision and policy makers, action enablers, and practitioners in the climate adaptation space. The map can also be used by all Canadians looking for examples of what is already being done to adapt to climate change across Canada. While the Map does not provide a comprehensive list of all action across Canada, nor a set of endorsed or best practices, the examples can help communities and organizations facing similar situations inspire each other to act. |
