Updated Nationally Determine Contribution
The Government of Tuvalu developed its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC)
and submitted it to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
in 2015 and ratified the Paris Agreement on 22 April 2016. When the Paris Agreement came
into force on 04 November 2016, Tuvalu’s INDC submitted in 2015 automatically became
Tuvalu’s First NDC.
Resilience Recovery Rapid Readiness Support in Tuvalu
Climate change is a fundamental cross-cutting issue that undermines Tuvalu socio-economic development efforts. Tuvalu’s climate change priorities are articulated in the recently approved Te Kete Sustainable Development Strategy 2021-2030, national climate change policy, sectoral policies as well as in legislation such as the Tuvalu Climate Change and Disaster Survival Fund Act and Regulations. As indicated in the NDC, Tuvalu commits to a reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases from electricity by 100% by 2025.

Pacific Adaptation to Climate Change and Resilience Building
Pacific Adaptation 1 to Climate
Change and Resilience Building (PACRES) aims to ensure better regional and national
adaptation and mitigation responses to climate change challenges facing Pacific ACP countries.

Islands, Niue, Palau, the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) and Tuvalu to climate change
and climate-related hazards, through the delivery of timely, accurate and actionable climate and
ocean information and early warnings to facilitate climate-resilient policy, planning,
preparedness and response actions.
The Programme will establish integrated climate and ocean information services and multihazard
Integrated Water Resource Management
The Tuvalu Integrated Water Resource Management Project focuses on the atolls of Funafui, Niutao, Nanumea and Nanumaga working on developing drought management plans, creating water and sanitation plan, and collecting data and producing a toll to enable accurate forecasting of water shortages and drought information.
