Agriculture practices and traditional knowl-edge have been passed down through many generations of Ni-Vanuatu and are particular to different areas of the country. However, these methods may need to be shifted. Predicted changes to rainfall, temperature, storms and sea level linked to climate change may result in changes to planting, fruiting and harvesting times, pests and diseases, location of gardens, soil fertility and other inputs of agriculture products.
Developing countries, as a group, are the ones most
threatened by the hydrological impacts of global climate
change (GCC). This is true both because many of the
poorest countries lie in those regions where GCC-related
effects will be most damaging, and because their ability to
respond to harmful change is the most limited. The objective
of this study is to provide an overview of likely waterrelated
climate change impacts in developing countries, to
develop a framework for adapting to these impacts and to

Vanuatu is one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to natural hazards. Situated in the Pacific’s ‘ring of fire’ and ‘cyclone belt’, it regularly experiences volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, cyclones and at times tsunamis, drought and flood. With the onset of climate change, extreme weather events are increasing in frequency and intensity, and sea levels are rising.
This Participants Manual is a reference resource to be used in the "Joj blong yumi i help long taem blong disasta" training program together with the Facilitators Manual. The training program teaches Christian Church leaders and groups in Vanuatu about disaster management.
