Climate change (CC) is a significant global environmental issue that poses severe consequences, particularly on agricultural productivity, lifestyle, infrastructure, and overall population well-being. These impacts are projected to vary among different countries. The primary concern of this research is that infrastructure networks, which both contribute to the causes of climate change and are essential for its resilience, would be more susceptible to its physical impacts, notably in the water and drainage sector. The research aims to develop a model for measuring the climate change resilience index for the water and drainage sector in coastal cities. Through an inductive approach to study climate change and its risks and the resilient infrastructure to climate change and its principles, then analysing structural and administrative adaptation measures, extracting structural, administrative, and emergency plans, then assessing the extent of adopting the principles of planning and confronting climate change, developing a measurement index, then applying it to New York, Melbourne, and Thessaloniki, and finally extracting the conclusions.
