Abstract:
Technical assistance for the completion of the Republic of Nauru Framework for Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction (RONAdapt) is being provided by the Secretariat of the Pacific Community through the Global Climate Change Alliance: Pacific Small Island States project funded by the European Union and by the Coping with Climate Change in the Pacific Island Region program (CCCPIR) implemented in partnership with Deutsche Gesellschaftfür Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). RONAdapt is similar in intent to the various JNAPs and other climate action plans that have been developed across the Pacific region. It is intended to support progress towards the country’s national development priorities and the goal of environmental sustainability, by ensuring that a focus on reducing vulnerabilities and risks is incorporated into planning and activities across all sectors of the economy and society.
