Publisher Description: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $5.3 million in the Coastal Community Adaptation Program (C-CAP) to help reduce the vulnerability of coastal communities in the Pacific Islands region to the impacts of climate change. C-CAP will strengthen community climate resilience through a range of activities, including: building local capacity for disaster risk reduction and preparedness, and integrating climate resilient policies and practices into long-term land use plans and building standards. The program is expected to benefit approximately 90 communities in the Pacific Islands. Up to twelve Pacific Island nations will participate in this program: Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu. |
