The Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care has developed a climate change resiliency toolkit for healthcare facilities. The toolkit is healthcare specific but could easily be adapted to other institutional environments.

The Climate Change Resiliency web pages are here: http://www.greenhealthcare.ca/resiliency/

The toolkit is an online set of questions, which when completed will provide you a score for how resilient your facility is. Many hospitals across the Americas are using an assessment process to help determine how resilient their facilities are. It is a process that is complimentary to Emergency Management Assessments, but takes a climate change focus.
