Van-KIRAP will support VGMD to provide five target sectors, including the Department of Agriculture
and its stakeholders with climate information ready to be used in current and planned activities. A
sector Coordinator in the Department of Agriculture will co-ordinate the Agriculture and Climate
Action and Communication Plan to advance the mainstreaming of climate information services into
agricultural policy, planning, design and delivery.

This document reviews existing information on climate and climate change as they affect Vanuatu’s
agriculture sector and summarises current policies, strategies and frameworks. It provides the
