Maturity stages Adaptation requires sustained, long-term commitment for an organisation – and adaptation capability will develop over time. The Framework includes maturity stages for each of the four capabilities:
Organisations will have different maturity levels along each capability and your progress completing tasks across the four capabilities may progress at different rates. For example, your organisation could be at an Advanced stage in ‘Understanding the Challenge’ but fit closer with the Starting level tasks within the ‘Planning and Implementation’ capability.
To get the most out of this guide:
Look through the headline tasks in each capability to gain an initial understanding of the actions involved and how capabilities link together Consider what tasks you have completed as an organisation and therefore what maturity level you feel you are at for each capability (your baseline). This will then help you plan your future actions. Use the further guidance on the WeAdapt website that accompanies this document to help you understand and act on the tasks suggested. Other existing resources on climate change, adaptation, and its relevance to the NHS are highlighted throughout the framework to explore as well.

The Framework includes 43 recommended tasks contained across maturity stages in each capability.
