Resilient Africa Online Decision Support Tool

The Interactive Resilient Africa Online Decision Support Tool forms part of a six step program that has been developed in con-junction with Local African governments with the sole purpose of assisting in the creation and implementation of adaptation plans in order to address the relevant climate change impacts currently faced by the specific local communities.

The highly interactive tool walks local governments through a process of identifying, prioritising and assessing viable adaptation options that should be included in strategic plans towards building resilience to climate change in the 21st Century. This comprehensive tool enables cities to also formulate local action plans to support in the process.

This Online Decision Support Tool is one of a suite of tools and services that ICLEI Africa provides in order to achieve these steps. http://www.resilientafrica.org/
