A Practitioner’s Guidance for Implementing the Steps to Resilience
Implementing the Steps to Resilience: A Practitioner’s Guide is a user-friendly report containing a set of procedures to accompany each phase of the U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit’s Steps to Resilience (StR). This document aims to support adaptation practitioners develop and implement equity-centered climate resilience plans in their communities. Climate Adaptation Practitioners are individuals working with a Community and Community Champion on implementing the StR. This individual is a climate adaptation and resilience-building professional who is skilled at building local capacity for climate resilience analysis, facilitation, and guidance. The Climate Adaptation Practitioner could have a range of experiences and is trained to work with a community to evaluate climate risks and develop resilience strategies. They must draw upon the diverse talents and skills across multiple sectors in order to support the communities where they work.
