    What Is Shaping Vulnerability to Climate Change? the Case of Laamu Atoll, Maldives

    Island Studies Journal, 14(1), 2019, 81-100 What is shaping vulnerability to climate change? The case of Laamu Atoll, Maldives Karen E. McNamara The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia [email protected] Rachel Clissold The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia [email protected] Annah Piggott-McKellar The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia [email protected] Lisa Buggy The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia [email protected] Aishath Azfa United Nations Development Programme, Malé, Maldives [email protected] Abstract: As climate change accelerates, it brings with it numerous challenges to society and the natural world. Concepts such as vulnerability have emerged as a way of trying to understand people’s risk, despite there being a range of variables that can influence vulnerability and its temporal and spatial dimensions. Drawing from the well-known conceptualisation of vulnerability as a function of exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity, this paper seeks to understand what variables are influencing and shaping vulnerability in Laamu Atoll, the Maldives, and produce a base of knowledge for future vulnerability reduction initiatives. Household questionnaires (n=412) were used on Laamu Atoll to ascertain locals’ perceptions of vulnerability based on livelihood resources, financial security, and climate-change experiences. Results show that peripherality, as a notion that describes the disparities between ‘core’ and ‘peripheral’ islands, is a key factor shaping vulnerability variables on Laamu Atoll. This has prompted an overarching recommendation for peripherality to be considered as a key dimension of vulnerability to climate change and an important consideration for existing and future human development and climate change policy and practice in Small Island Developing States.

The report would not have been possible without the extensive contributions made by the Government and people of the Maldives. Many of the Government counterparts have been working round the clock since the tsunami struck and yet they were able and willing to provide their time to the Assessment team while also carrying out their regular work. It is difficult to name each and every person who contributed.
