A report providing a legal context to the various issues relating to REDD+ in Vanuatu
This research, conducted by researchers at the University of Technology, Sydney, focused on how the immediate
humanitarian needs following disasters are met by various stakeholders, both in the affected country and those offering support from outside.
Roads connecting local communities in North Epi Island, Vanuatu, are highly vulnerable to the effects of extreme weather and coastal hazards. To help address this issue, PACCSAP commissioned a Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) to objectively compare the merits of different options to improve road access.
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.
