Abstract:
This Plan has evolved over a period of 15 years starting with the UNDTCD (now the UNDESA) Draft 10 Year Master Plan in 1992 and subsequent revisions by the Water Engineering Unit, assisted by the Public Utilities Board, both in the Ministry of Public Works and Utilities. A comprehensive revision was initiated under the EU Pacific Water Governance Project, coordinated by SOPAC, and continued under KAPII by Professor Ian White, Australian National University.
This Implementation Plan sets out strategies for implementing the Government of Kiribati's National Water Resources Policy. A companion document Background to the National Water Resources Policy and Implementation Plan provides background information that led to the development of this plan.
