Powerpoint presentation to promote awareness of impacts of climate changeand practical adaptations.
This pamplet provides some of the important informations about what we can do when there is a Tsunami warning taking place.
This are some of the first and main facts to be aware of and it is some of the knowledge that could save your life.
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.
Christian Churches in Vanuatu are a strong network that can help all people (not just their own members) before, during and after a disaster. The activities in the training program teach Church leaders to work with all in their community to prepare and respond to natural disasters.
This Manual is written for community leaders to facilitate Disaster Management training activities for Christian Church leaders and groups in Vanuatu. It outlines a series of Disaster Management learning activities and is supported by a ‘Participants Manual’ (in Bislama).

This study examines the effectiveness of DRM capacity building efforts of regional organizations in the Pacific with a view to comparing the actions of Pacific regional organizations with those acting in Southeast Asia and South Asia.
| This course outline is in draft form only (softcopy). It is a "competency unit" being developed for us in RTCs (Rural Training Centres) in Vanuatu, in order to help trainees adopt technologies such as agro-forestry. Such techniques will improve food security as the climate changes. |
Climate change is impacting on food security and biosecurity in the Pacific region by degradation of
food production areas (sea level rise, salinity, drought), devastation caused by extreme weather
events (cyclones, flooding) and impacts on recovery time such as replacement of lost crop
germplasm and the need to import food substitutes. The aim of this project was to identify the key
impacts of climate change on the unique cropping systems in four small Pacific nations (Tonga,
Vanuatu, Kiribati and Tuvalu). Information was collected by the development of a questionnaire
