Building Climate Resilience in Vanuatu
Lessons and Recommendations from a Community-Based Adaptation Project in Vanuatu
To address some of these challenges, build the climate resilience of communities, and support the achievement of Vanuatu’s climate and development policy objectives, CARE International in Vanuatu and Save the Children developed a community-based climate change adaptation project with support from the USAID Pacific American Climate Fund (PACAM). The overall goal of the project was to increase the resilience of communities, especially women, young people, boys and girls, to shocks, stresses and future uncertainty resulting from climate change.
Building Climate Resilience
Lessons and Recommendations from a Community-Based Adaptation Project in Vanuatu
This report is a result of a collaboration between CARE International in Vanuatu and Save the Children and is drawn from the community-based adaptation and resilience work carried out from January 2016 to May 2017 in Vanuatu.
This publication aims to capture some of the key experiences of children, women, farmers, teachers and government officials who engaged in project activities to demonstrate what has been achieved through this project, and to highlight elements that have the potential to be replicated and scaled up to achieve greater impact in Vanuatu and beyond.
