This report assesses adaptive capacity in the Tegua island community in northern Vanuatu and examines the role of the ‘Capacity Building for the Development of Adaptation Measures in Pacific Island Countries’ (CBDAMPIC) relocation project in shaping it.
This case study illuminates the opportunities for, and barriers to, adaptive capacity in the Tegua island community in northern Vanuatu, using a Pacific-specific analysis framework developed by a collaborative effort between the University of the South Pacific (USP), the Red Cross and the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC). It examines the experiences of the community in a pilot project involving relocation and water resource management as part of the regional Capacity Building for the Development of Adaptation Measures in Pacific Island Countries (CBDAMPIC) program for climate change adaptation. In particular, it examines the impacts of the CBDAMPIC pilot project in shaping adaptive capacity in this community.
This report was supported by funding from the Australian Government under the Pacific Australia Climate Change Science and Adaptation Planning (PACCSAP) program.

The WASH Media materials consists of the following audio and video files:
AD 1 WASH - This audio relates the message of using clean and safe water in food preparation.
AD 2 WASH - This audio relates the message of using clean and safe water and being hygienic with food.
AD 3 WASH - This audio relates the message of getting clean water to prevent sicknesses such as diarrhoea.
AD 4 WASH - This audio relates the message of getting clean water and other necessities ready before a cyclone.
AD 5 WASH - This audio relates the message of proper water management practises as well as good hygience and sanitation for toilets.
AD 6 WASH - This audio relates the message of proper water management.
Confliction (Rap blong WASH) - This youtube video relates the message of how unclean water results in sickness thus how we should preserve clean water and practise good water management to be ready for disasters.

Ocean warming may well turn out to be the greatest hidden challenge of our generation. This report represents the most comprehensive review to date on ocean warming. To build up the report, leading scientists from around the world were invited to join with colleagues to contribute individual chapters. It contains many recommendations from the scientists on capability gaps and research issues that need to be resolved if we are to tackle the impacts of ocean warming with greater confidence in the future. The focus of the report is on gathering facts and knowledge and communicating this to show what is now happening in and to the ocean. There is purposefully much less focus on political ramifications. We hope that this report will help stimulate further debate and action on such issues.

The Monitoring Indicators Survey, developed with Intercluster guidance, engages real-time national data collection from the ground up through the even targeting of mobile users located throughout Vanuatu. The purpose of the Monitoring Indicators is to identify thematic hotspots and to track changes any over time.
Hotspots are determined based on the percentage of respondents, which is approximately 20 per area. Low numbers (1-3 respondents) can create high percentages from one response, and are therefore highlighted. Areas of most interest are hotspots identified as red, orange or yellow due to the higher percentages of respondents citing difficulties or challenges. It is recommended that further sectoral analyses are directed toward hotspots of interest to determine causation or identify relevant cross sectoral correlations. In the table below, hotspots are approximated geographically into North, East, South, West and Central. In the accompanying maps, hotspots are visible by Island and Area Council.

Assist in the application of technology to improve understanding of effectiveness of climate change policy and activity in the country in line with the review of climate change policy underway. Assist with understanding opportunites for feeding this work into specific areas of interest of the government: e.g. data in the agricultural sector (as already examined in Samoa)
Project
Around the world, weather patterns are shifting
and farmers are scrambling to adjust as the
leading edge of climate change is arriving.
In quite a few places, growing seasons have
expanded, in others they have contracted. Sea
levels are rising and water tables are shrinking.
For agriculture, climate change is no longer
conjecture but a fact of daily life.

This is a course outline provided by the Vanuatu Institude of teachers college providing infomation on learning about the planet Earth. The Portfolio is made up of activities that you are expected to complete during your 1 hour non-contact time. It is therefore advisable that you buy an exercise book that you can use for this purpose. The activities in this course are designed as a review of basic skills required for Earth Science, Physics, Biology and Chemistry. Thus it is very important that you complete all the activities required for each of these modules

Most modern astronomers believe that the universe began about 15 billion years ago when a very dense mass of material exploded in the so-called BIG BANG. This explosion sent all the materials of the universe outward in all directions, so that our universe is still expanding. All the galaxies, stars, planets, asteroids and other bodies in the universe were formed or are forming from the gas and dust of this enormous explosion. New stars continue to be formed, while others die or disappear into “black holes”.
