Introducing the Urban Adaptation Assessment

The Urban Adaptation Assessment, or UAA, is a measurement and analysis tool from the University of Notre Dame that explores a city’s adaptability to climate change.

This interactive database profiles over 270 cities within the United States, to be a decision-support tool as city leaders plan for a changing climate. The tool allows sustainability officers and community leaders to evaluate climate risks and readiness, on a city level and by census tract, to analyze the equity of city policies.
