Palau Climate Change Policy - for climate and disaster resilient low emissions development 2015

This policy is organised around each sub-objective. Section 1 introduces this policy, including its Vision and Objectives. Section 2 addresses the inevitable expected changes to climate by encouraging proactive adaptation. Section 3 addresses the unexpected - whether directly caused by or simply exacerbated by climate change - by institutionalising preparation and risk reduction for disasters. Section 4 lays out Palau's priorities for mitigating and minimising GHG emissions. Section 5 prioritises cross -sector institutional actions necessary to achieve the three objectives. Section 6 includes an indicative financing budget for implementing the first 5-year Action Plan.
