A mix of household surveys and community workshops were used to better understand the reliance of vulnerable communities in Greater Port Vila on their surrounding ecosystems and the services that these resources provide.
This report was prepared by Griffith University under the Pacific Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change Project (PEBACC).
Local communities and stakeholders were engaged throughout the process to map ecosystem types; define key ecosystem functions and services; define the economic value and identify possible threats to these ecosystem services; identify and prioritise possible EbA projects to improve ecosystem health and increase community resilience; and develop an implementation plan for the selected EbA projects.
The PAA is an integration and prioritization of the action agendas contained in the already accepted and ongoing national and provincial programs including the CRP, Business Forum Outcomes and the Rural Economic Development Initiatives (REDI) Plans.
