  • Understanding Adaptation to Climate Change in Micronesia: a Case Study of the Marshall
    UNDERSTANDING ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE IN MICRONESIA: A CASE STUDY OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS by Ngedikes Olai Uludong A thesis submitted in fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Climate Change Copyright © 2014 by Ngedikes Olai Uludong Pacific Centre for Environment and Sustainable Development (PACE-SD) The University of the South Pacific January 2014 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Born to a Palauan family, I have been raised in a hard-working environment and a product of a family passionate in protecting the environment. The passion that drove my parents and siblings to protect Palau’s environment has helped develop strengths in me as being passionate, observant and a quick learner with a persistent personality. For my academic life, I was fortunate to study in institutions, which significantly enhanced my innovativeness, initiative, and leadership skills. For this reason, I would like to thank the University of the South Pacific (USP) and the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) for funding my research study of the Marshall Islands. Moreover, I would like to recognize and offer my heartfelt “thank you” to the USP Marshall Islands Campus for hosting me and providing me with unlimited resources to complete my research. Furthermore, I would like to thank the Republic of the Marshall Islands Environmental Protection Agency (RMIEPA) for providing me with unlimited access to their resources to assist me in fulfilling my research objectives, findings and concluding chapters. For my personal endeavors, my Palauan upbringing and who I am today is the starting point of my current ambitions and have indeed played a huge role in my successes in both my educational and career paths.
