The article proposes a methodology of a system of indicators for the design and evaluation of projects for adaptation to climate change in Havana's coastal municipalities. After the systematization of the current state of the State Plan to Confront Climate Change, Life Task, a series of indicators are presented from the physical-geographical, economic and social dimensions, with emphasis on the latter. This plan is Cuba's strategy to adapt and mitigate the effects of climate change. For this purpose, the methods of bibliographic review, cross-referencing of sources and consultation with experts have been used. The report confirms the presence of indicators aimed at measuring vulnerability in terms of exposure to threats of natural origin, however, it is necessary to design vulnerability indicators taking into account the adaptive capacity that allows evaluating the impacts of climate change in the coastal municipalities of Havana.
