This is the final report with recommendations of the FSM Climate Change and Disaster Risk Finance Assessment as of February 2019. It provides the seven key pillars as discussed in the executive summary, with identification of number of recommendations for the government to support its direct access to international climate finances, which are discussed in detail within the report, and the Action Plan with timeframes and responsibilities and partners for support for each recommendation.
The focus of this Policy is to mitigate climate change especially at the international level, and adaptation at the national, state and community levels to reduce the FSM’s vulnerability to climate change adverse impacts. In this context, FSM reaffirms its social and cultural identity and its people’s rights and desire to continue to live sustainably on their islands.
