Project title: Enhancing water-food security and climate resilience in volcanic island countries of the Pacific
Document
Project Profile Form - Enhancing Adaptation and Community Resilience by Improving Water Security
Document
Climate change effects such as cyclones, extreme rainfall events, changes in ENSO, increased air temperature and sea level rise will impact on water systems through saltwater intrusion, physical damage and water contamination. As part of Vanuatu’s National Implementation Plan (NIP) for Safe and Secure Water, rural communities are identifying climate risks and adaptation solutions for water systems through Drinking Water Safety and Security Plans (DWSSPs). This project will strengthen the NIP and DWSSP process to address climate change impacts for climate-resilient DWSSPs and adapted water supplies through water protection zones and physical water system improvements.

ENVIRONMENT AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
GCF defines ESMP as “a document that contains a list and description of measures that have been identified for avoiding adverse environmental and social impacts, including, where appropriate transboundary risks and impacts, or minimising them to acceptable levels, or to mitigate and compensate them and [is] usually the main output of the [environmental and social impact assessment] ESIA process”.

Strategic Proposal
The overall objective of this proposal is to strengthen the Republic of Vanuatu’s capacity to engage with and derive increased direct benefit from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Despite of the COVID Pandemic, Vanuatu as with other countries are keen to continue to build on from the 2020 climate action momentum. This proposal outlines our strategic vision, approach and series of activities to achieve this objective.
Via a series of procedural reforms, technical trainings, participatory meetings, and engagement with all sectors of society, and alongside its multiple civil society, non-government, private sector, academic and international development partners, Vanuatu’s Ministry of Climate Change aims to:
Project
An Indigenous led Network of community Environmental Champions, working together for the protection of biodiversity, sustainable development, customary governance, and climate/disaster resilience within the Santo Mountain Chain Key Biodiversity Area of the Western Coastline of the Island of Espiritu Santo in the Republic of Vanuatu
Mission
The Santo Sunset Environment Network (SSEN) shall serve as a catalyst to support and empower individuals, villages and communities in the West Coast and North West Santo region in improving environmental protection and conservation; and to influence the design and implementation of effective, inclusive, resilient and sustainable development strategies in keeping with traditional livelihoods.
Charitable Purposes
To contribute to its Mission, the Network’s charitable purposes include the following:
(a) To prevent environmental degradation by affirming and amplifying existing knowledge, skills and expertise of the people of West and North West Santo
(b) Building new skills, knowledge, awareness and capacity in areas of environment, climate change and other topics
(c) Promoting and enabling of traditional knowledge concerning issues of environmental protection and sustainable development.
(d) Reduce negative human impacts on the environment
(e) Facilitate a sustainable transformation in the way West and North West Santo communities use resources, including on the land, forests, freshwater, the ocean, atmosphere, and energy.
(f) To prioritize sustainable development that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
(g) To inspire government, business, community, and individual action related to the environment.
(h) To organize, support, inspire and coordinate Network members to work together and speak with one voice.

Vanuatu’s Third National Communication is an essential document for Vanuatu to fulfill its reporting obligation as a Party to the UNFCCC. This report shows how Vanuatu is progressing in meeting its’ international commitments on climate change. The Third National Communication report, lays out the level of vulnerability and risks we face to the current impacts of climate change, how we are coping with these impacts, and what the future might look like as the climate rapidly changes. Furthermore, this report describes Vanuatu’s greenhouse gas emissions and documents the mitigation actions the nation is taking in the pursuit of low-carbon and climate-resilient development.

The Vanuatu National Vulnerability Assessment Framework (NVAF) was developed to enable the channeling of finance to people who live in places that are most vulnerable to climate change and disasters. The NVAF is designed to facilitate a more systematic and robust collation and analysis of existing and forthcoming climate and disaster vulnerability data from multiple sources (stakeholders) and methods (qualitative, quantitative, subjective, objective) to more effectively inform resilience decision-making, planning, project prioritization and financial allocation at national and sub-national levels. Aligned with the Green Climate Fund (GCF) investment criteria aims to facilitate a paradigm shift towards climate-resilient sustainable development by providing a common climate vulnerability assessment framework across sectors and governance levels for: identifying people and places that are particularly vulnerable to climate change and in what way; institutionalizing a gender-sensitive and socially inclusive approach to resilient development; and adaptively managing climate and disaster resilient interventions in accordance with evolving national sustainable development priorities. The effective access to and use of existing and future climate and disaster vulnerability data to address key knowledge gaps in a resilience investment decision-making context is central to the NVAF and its application.
