Coastal resilience scorecard

The Coastal Resilience Scorecard was designed to be an early, adaptive and catalytic enablement tool for responsible teams within city boundaries (however defined) to access technical expertise and encyclopedic knowledge sets in a single platform dedicated to coastal disaster risk reduction.

City professionals and key stakeholders are encouraged to utilize this Scorecard to evaluate composite ‘readiness levels’ for the prevention, response and recovery periods of coastal disasters and chronic coastal stress conditions. The self-scoring outputs will serve as an input to developing viable coastal city resilience plans for the immediate and longer terms. As cities evaluate their readiness levels against the considerations laid out in the Scorecard, they will identify both strengths and weaknesses in planning & implementation, in policy and finance prioritization, and in education and awareness.
