Assessing Fiji's climate vulnerability: A blueprint for building resilience

This document outlines the application and lessons learnt from the climate vulnerability assessment (CVA) implemented by the government in Fiji.

The CVA  assessed the impact of climate change on Fiji’s economy, livelihoods and poverty levels, health and food security, as well as potential impacts of sea level rise on coastal areas and low lying islands. While not the first assessment of climate change impacts in Fiji, the CVA broke new ground by using innovative methodologies and analyses which were developed by a team of Fijian government, World Bank and GFDRR staff.
