My Adaptation Pathway is a series of four self-paced courses designed to help tribes evaluate, plan, and take action on a climate change vulnerability assessment.

Course 1 introduces the basics of how climate change works, and how climate exposures and impacts affect Tribes across the country. The lessons help show the linkages between climate change and health and well-being in Indian Country using a broad, holistic definition of “health.”

Course 2 will lead you through determining your community’s most significant climate and health vulnerabilities.

Course 3 focuses on preparing dynamic and actionable adaptation plans that protect Tribal health and wellbeing. It also describes how to identify and select appropriate strategies to address climate change exposures and impacts.

Course 4 moves to action, which entails systematically implementing the strategies in coordination with stakeholders, including Tribal government agencies and departments. This final course illuminates the practices associated with implementing and tracking different types of adaptation strategies.
