Description
The project will expand the use of Climate Information Services (CIS) in five targeted sectors: tourism, agriculture, infrastructure, water management and fisheries. Specific project goals include building technical capacity to harness and manage climate data, developing practical CIS tools, fostering the use of CIS tools, and disseminating tailored climate information.
The CISRDP GCF-funded project is locally known within Vanuatu as the Van-KIRAP Project (Vanuatu Klaemet Infomesen blong Redy, Adapt mo Protekt = Vanuatu Climate Information to prepare, adapt and protect). "KIRAP" is the Bislama (Vanuatu national language) word for "Get Up".
