The City of Campbell River partnered with Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI Canada) to create a Community Climate Adaptation Plan (CCAP). The development of CCAP involved a two-year project, Together for Climate: Managing Risk through Community Collaboration.

Campbell River was one of eight local governments on Vancouver Island to participate in the Together for Climate projects. The project objectives were to:
- Work together with local partners in a community-wide adaptation planning effort predicated on climate change modelling data
- Identify local vulnerabilities and potential future climate impacts
- Assess and prioritize climate risks
- Develop an implementation-ready adaptation plan that addresses location-specific risks
To accomplish these objects, the City completed a four-phase climate adaptation planning process.
