Based on the Indicator Method, were collected a set of indicators take into account some previously defined criteria over four main components, Exposure, Sensitivity, Adaptive Capacity, and Governance. The result shows that good indicators need to be aligned with the main proposal and take into account a set of criteria to achieve the main goal.
