Kiribati: A Large Ocean State Seeks Change
Vulnerability to climate change has forced the Pacific republic to build resilience through community approaches to fisheries management. The Republic of Kiribati faces many development challenges due to its remoteness and limited resources—financial, infrastructural, institutional and environmental. With population pressure increasing, land is not only scarce but at a perilously low elevation. Kiribati is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Hence it is often being portrayed in the media as a victim of climate change, with low-lying islands being submerged by the rising sea level.
