  • Kiribati Voluntary National Review and Kiribati Development Plan Mid-Term Review New-York, July 2018
    Kiribati Voluntary National Review and Kiribati Development Plan Mid-Term Review New-York, July 2018 Acknowledgments The Kiribati Voluntary National Review and Kiribati Development Plan Mid-Term Review was authored by the Government of Kiribati, as coordinated by the Director of the National Economic and Planning Office in the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development. This document would not have been possible without the support of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for the Asia Pacific (UNESCAP), the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat (PIFS), and the Secretariat for the Pacific Community (SPC) who offered both financial and technical support. Forward I am honoured to present this first Kiribati Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Voluntary National Review Report (VNR) and Kiribati Development Plan Mid-Term Review. The VNR has provided us with an opportunity to take stock of our current stage of development and assess where our future plans will take us. It is a chance for us to engage all the people of Kiribati in helping to shape our development story to the world. It is for this reason that we have made extensive efforts to engage with our community and service organisations, the private sector, religious bodies, development partners, and all levels of government. This report is truly a product of collaboration and partnership. Effective implementation through partnership is respected by Government. Government engages NGOs, CBOs, and the private sector in many of our national committees and taskforces to build ownership and dialogue with the community. International and regional partnerships are equally important, with Kiribati committed to a number of regional and international conventions such as the Istanbul Plan of Action, the Small Island Developing States (SIDS) Accelerated Modalities of Action (SAMOA) Pathway, the Framework for Pacific Regionalism, and the UN’s Human Rights-based conventions such as CEDAW, the Pacific Gender Equality Declaration and more.

  • Kiribati Social and Economic Report 2008
    Pacific Studies Series Studies Pacific Pacific Studies Series Kiribati Social and Economic Report 2008 After two impressively peaceful decades, there are signs of a dangerous degree of complacency in Kiribati’s view of its domestic and external affairs. Forms of cultural and political resistance to change have thus been encouraged, and these are handicapping the nation’s response to development risks. Eight leading sources of development risk confronting Kiribati are identified, and these require understanding and appropriate responses in the form of well-formulated national development strategies. Based on a thorough assessment of risks, priorities, and options by sector in the main report, 16 policy actions are recommended as keys to the full range of responses that need to be formulated to cope with development risk. About the Asian Development Bank 2008 Report KiribatiEconomic and Social ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries substantially reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to two thirds of the world’s poor: 1.8 billion people who live on less than $2 a day, with 903 million struggling on less than $1.25 a day. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.
