UK Climate Impacts Programme (UKCIP)
The UKCIP Adaptation Wizard is a tool to help organizations adapt to climate change. Through a 5-step process it helps users to assess organizational vulnerability to current climate and future climate change; identify options to address key climate risks; and develop and implement a climate change adaptation strategy. Each stage of the UKCIP Adaptation Wizard is supported by additional information, tools and resources available from UKCIP, which have been specifically designed to help organizations plan how to adapt. The UKCIP Adaptation Wizard recognizes adaptation as a continuous, iterative process rather than an end point to be reached.
