Regional: mainstreaming environmental considerations in economic and development planning processes in selected Pacific developing member countries: Country environmental analysis: Vanuatu - Technical Assistance Consultant's Report

The Country Environmental Analysis (CEA) is not only intended to assist the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in updating its Country Partnership Strategy with the Government of Vanuatu but also to assist Vanuatu’s other development partners by providing a roadmap to address the current environmental issues. Prepared in a participatory manner, the CEA provides background information on Vanuatu’s environmental constraints, needs, and opportunities, describes the environmental issues that are most important to Vanuatu’s sustainable development strategy, and outlines the possible role that ADB and other development partners could play in helping to address the critical environmental constraints.
