Assessment of Climate Hazards and Associated sectoral impacts for Tuvalu

The purpose of this report is to summarise the findings of the assessment of the key climate hazards impacting Tuvalu over current and future (multi-decadal) climate change timescales, in particular as relates to six priority sectors, viz: agriculture, fisheries, water, health, coastal development/infrastructure and disaster management. More specifically, this assessment is intended to provide science-based evidence to inform an integrated Climate Impact, Vulnerability and Risk Assessment (CIVRA) as part of the development of the new National Adaptation Plan (NAP) for Tuvalu funded by the Green Climate Fund (GCF).
