Draft SOPAC Miscellaneous Report 648

Severe and widespread damage was worst on the larger islands of Tanna, Erromango, and Efate, while there was less damage on the smaller islands of Aneityum, Aniwa, and Futuna in the southern region. Eleven fatalities were subsequently confirmed in Tafea and Shefa Provinces.

he total economic value of the effects caused by Tropical Cyclone Pam was estimated to be approximately VT 48.6 billion (US$449.4 million). Of this, VT 29.3 billion (US$270.9 million) is attributable to damage, and VT 19.3 billion (US$178.5 million) is attributable to loss. This is equivalent to 64.1% of the gross domestic product (GDP) in Vanuatu, giving an indication of the scale of impact. Because of data limitations, however, it is likely that these figures underestimate the total impact.

This table provides a summary of the estimated costs for recovery and reconstruction. Total recovery and reconstruction is estimated at VT 34.1 billion (US$316 million). Of this amount VT 10.3 billion (US$95 million) is focused over the short-term (12 months to four years).

*data extracted from the PDNA Cyclone Pam 2015*

For the purpose of this PDNA, the agricultural sector is defined to include the crops, livestock, fishery, and forestry subsectors

Commerce and industry comprises close to 40% of GDP and is therefore a key sector for Vanuatu. Tropical Cyclone Pam damaged the sector’s buildings and inputs for production, and it continued to affect the sector through increased costs of inputs and reduced activity in the economy. It is important to note that the figures reported are likely to be underestimated due to the amount of data available for inclusion within this PDNA, which was prepared in a short time frame.
