At the second PACC Multipartite Review Meeting in August 2011 it was agreed that Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) would be incorporated into PACC pilot demonstration projects. This report documents the planning of the PACC CBA work program, outputs and impacts to date, and next steps for the coming 12 months. The focus of the report is an evaluation of three CBA training workshops which were run between November 2011 and February 2012.

Report from the PACC project

Te Kaniva (Tuvalu Climate Change Policy) prescribes the Government and the people of Tuvalu’s strategic polices for responding to climate change impacts and related disaster risks over the next 10 years (2012–2021). The Policy defines seven thematic goals, strategies and desired outcomes that the Government and the people of Tuvalu have prioritized for implementation to ensure that safety and resilience are achieved. The Policy is directly linked to the National Strategic Action Plan for Climate Change and Disaster Risk Management (NSAP). In both the policy and NSAP, climate change refers to both adaptation and mitigation unless specifically differentiated. The Policy covers climate change impacts and related climate and hydrological hazards whereas the NSAP covers geological and anthropological hazards and related disasters.
