本章的目标是在气候不断变化、自然灾害可能更加频繁和严重的时代，将原因（风险）与抗灾实体（城市地区）的需要联系起来。前几章定义了什么是抗灾城市以及如何理解它，但随后可能会出现另一个问题：如何衡量抗灾城市？这就是本章的内容：开发一种工具，能够充分解决城市功能系统中的脆弱部分，此外，还能提高其科普潜在灾害的能力。这一工具名为气候灾害复原力指数，它只是一个测量过程，或气候灾害复原力倡议（CDRI），它涵盖了这一方法的所有方面，将展示如何在一次全面的尝试中评估城市的不同功能。因此，CDRI不仅仅是一个衡量城市在某个时间点状况的工具;它还具有更广泛的目标，即引导社区和地方政府走上可持续发展的道路，提高城市对气候相关灾害的整体抵御能力。因此，CDRI工具将作为一种城市规划工具，描述城市背景下或多或少具有复原力的部门。
In this chapter the objective is to link the causes (risks) with the need of disaster resilient entities (urban areas) in an era in which the climate is changing and natural hazards are likely to occur more frequently and more severely . The previous chapters defined what a resilient city is and how it can be understood, but another question may arise subsequently: how to measure a disaster resilient city? This is what this chapter is about: to develop a tool that is capable of adequately addressing the vulnerable parts of a city's functional system, and additionally, its responsive capacity to cope with a potential disaster. This tool – named Climate Disaster Resilience Index, which is only the process of measurement, or Climate Disaster Resilience Initiative (CDRI), which encompasses all aspects of this approach – shall demonstrate how different functionalities of a city can be assessed in a comprehensive single attempt. Accordingly, the CDRI is more than just a tool to measure the condition of a city at a certain point of time; it also has the wider ambition to lead communities and local governments onto a path of sustainable development that ought to increase the overall resilience level of their city to climate-related disasters. As a result, the CDRI tool shall serve as an urban planning tool depicting the sectors within an urban context that are more or less resilient.
