Tonga: Joint national action plan 2 on climate change and disaster risk management (JNAP 2) 2018-2028

This is the second version of the Joint National Action Plan on Climate Change and Disaster Risk Management (JNAP2). It sets out six policy objectives and targets and an implementation strategy for the country to achieve its vision of a Resilient Tonga by 2035. JNAP2 is aligned with the Tonga Climate Change Policy and covers both climate change adaptation and disaster risk management.

The six objectives are:

• Mainstreaming for a resilient Tonga
• Implement a coordinated approach to research, monitoring and management of data and information
• Resilience-building response capacity
• Resilience-building actions
• Finance
• Regional and international cooperation

Taking a 'whole of Tonga' approach, JNAP2 remains consistent with the Framework for Resilient Development in the Pacific and international agreements including the Sendai Framework, the Paris Agreement, and the Sustainable Development Goals.
