Planning Fiji's Climate Resilient Infrastrucuture: Retrofit or Relocate

Fiji, like many island countries in the Pacific, is susceptible to extreme weather events which are worsened by climate change. The frequency and intensity of cyclones, floods and droughts are changing and together with rising sea-levels represent an increasing threat to vulnerable communities. The European Union funded Global Climate Change Alliance Plus – Scaling up Pacific Adaptation (SUPA) project has been working with sectoral agencies and partners in Fiji to support the planning and costing of more robust infrastructure that are more adaptive to ongoing climate-related challenges.

ℹ The Pacific Community (SPC) has been supporting sustainable development in the Pacific, through science, knowledge and innovation since 1947. It is the principal intergovernmental organisation in the region, owned and governed by its 26 member countries and territories.
