Description
This toolkit, which should be used alongside the Climate Change Impacts & Risk Management guide from the Australian Government Department of Climate Change, outlines an adaptive management process and provides a set of tools and exercises meant to assist councils as they work through the process. This toolkit is organized according to the adaptive management process. It outlines how and when to use each of the included tools as a complement to the adaptive management process. As the tools are voluntary components of the adaptive management process and each tool is designed for specific needs, individual councils will need to determine which of the tools are appropriate for their particular use.
