Vanuatu Community-based Climate Resilience Project

Vanuatu is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries. Communities suffer an existing adaptation deficit. The Vanuatu Community-based Climate Resilience Project seeks to: reduce the climate-related vulnerabilities of communities across Vanuatu; increase their resilience to climate variability, extremes and change; and build the adaptive capacity required to ensure communities can maintain sustainable development pathways across a wide range of climate futures. This will be achieved via: 1) developing and implementing scalable, locally appropriate actions to meet immediate and future community adaptation needs to create climate- resilient sustainable development pathways; 2) strengthening and supporting government and civil society to facilitate local-level adaptation; and 3) facilitating horizontal and vertical dialogue between communities, government, civil society and the private sector. The Vanuatu Ministry of Climate Change and Save the Children Vanuatu will be co-Executing Entities. Project activities will be delivered by a range of implementing partners, including key government departments, provincial governments, local civil society organisations and private sector entities.
