    Developing healthier and more inclusive communities through sport Vanuatu The impact of development through sport Results of research conducted on the Australian Sports Outreach Program in Vanuatu The Australian Sports Outreach Program in Vanuatu is working with local communities to help address important development challenges, including health related behaviours, young people’s engagement, and quality of life for women and people with disability. Through a partnership with Vanuatu’s Department of Youth Development, Sports and Training, three discreet projects in five provinces are being delivered through the Nabanga Sport for Development program. With Australia’s support, Nabanga is developing healthier, more inclusive and more cohesive communities through sport. Sport is well placed to help combat non-communicable diseases by getting people more active more often, and by providing opportunities to deliver messages on other risk factors including diet, tobacco and alcohol. When used strategically, sport can also address barriers to inclusion, and establish and build relationships within and between communities.

  • The Status of the Dugong (Dugon Dugon) in Vanuatu
    ORIGINAL: ENGLISH SOUTH PACIFIC REGIONAL ENVIRONMENT PROGRAMME TOPIC REVIEW No. 37 THE STATUS OF THE DUGONG (DUGON DUGON) IN VANUATU M.R. Chambers, E.Bani and B.E.T. Barker-Hudson O.,;^, /ZO. ^ ll pUG-^Y^ South Pacific Commission Noumea, New Caledonia April 1989 UBHArt/ SOUTH PACIFIC COMMISSION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This project was carried out to assess the distribution, abundance, cultural importance and threats to the dugong in Vanuatu. The study was carried out by a postal questionnaire survey and an aerial survey, commencing in October 1987. About 600 copies of the questionnaire were circulated in Vanuatu, and about 1000 kilometres of coastline surveyed from the air. Dugongs were reported or seen to occur in nearly 100 localities, including all the major islands and island groups of Vanuatu. The animals were generally reported to occur in small groups; only in three instances were groups of more than 10 animals reported. Most people reported that dugong numbers were either unchanged or were increasing. There was no evidence that dugongs migrate large distances or between islands in the archipelago, although movements may occur along the coasts of islands and between closely associated islands. Dugong hunting was reported from only a few localities, although it is caught in more areas if the chance occurs. Most hunting methods use traditional means, mainly the spear. Overall, hunting mortality is low, even in areas reported to regularly hunt dugongs. Accordingly, the dugong does not seem to be an important component of the subsistence diet in any part of Vanuatu, even though it is killed mainly for food.

Situation Overview Now in the fourth week of the operation after Tropical Cyclone Pam hit Vanuatu, the Emergency Telecommunications Cluster (ETC) is working closely with the Government of Vanuatu to coordinate ICT efforts to ensure a swift and efficient response, avoid duplication of efforts and ensure resources are channeled where they are most needed. The National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) has indicated that it expects the national network backbone to be operational within three weeks and further deployment of ETC equipment is no longer necessary. Basic GSM services have been largely restored and local Internet Service Providers are working hard to reestablish the national network backbone. 3G is still a challenge. Response 1x emergency.lu VSAT was successfully installed in Isangel (Tanna Island), replacing the immediate response portable satellite terminal (BGAN), provided by Telecoms Sans Frontieres (TSF), in order to provide extended internet connectivity services to the humanitarian community.

  • Can Insurance Play a Role? Volcano Risk in Vanuatu: Can Insurance Play a Role? 2 Figure 1: Maps of Ambae Disaster Response, Phases 2 and 3
    MAY 2018 Mount Yasur Volcano on Tanna Island in Vanuatu Credit: Kate Humble/Red Vanuatu Volcano Risk in Vanuatu Can Insurance Play a Role? Overview of Volcanic Risk in Vanuatu Vanuatu has 83 islands, most of which are volcanic. There are total of 16 volcanoes in Vanuatu, of which six are active and ten are dormant. Since the 1600s, the major recorded eruptions resulted in substantial changes to Vanuatu’s land formation and migration. This includes fatalities and permanent resettlements either within the island or to other islands. The most recent volcanic eruptions on record since 1995 are: Manaro Voui on Ambae in 2017, 2005 and 1995; Yasur volcano on Tanna in 2016 and 1998, Benbow and Marum on Ambrym Island and Gaua in 2010 and 2009.

  • I. Introduction Vanuatu Is a Small Island Nation In
    Millennium Challenge Corporation For Immediate Release March 2, 2006 Vanuatu Compact Executive Summary I. Introduction Vanuatu is a small island nation in the South Pacific comprised of 83 separate islands, where approximately half of the population lives in poverty. As a small, open, island economy, agriculture and tourism are central to Vanuatu’s growth. These two sectors together employ more than 70% of Vanuatu’s working population1 and represent approximately 34% of Vanuatu’s GDP2. Vanuatu’s poor transportation infrastructure, however, continues to hinder formal economic activity and investment in the agriculture and tourism sectors, thereby constraining private-sector led economic growth. Vanuatu’s capital outlays, at 7% of national expenditures, are the lowest in the Pacific region3. The five-year, $65.69 million Vanuatu Compact provides an in-depth focus on one economic development priority: overcoming transport infrastructure constraints to poverty reduction and economic growth, specifically for rural areas. Consisting of eleven infrastructure projects – including roads, wharves, an airstrip, and warehouses, as well as institutional strengthening initiatives for enhanced maintenance capacity, the program aims to benefit poor, rural agricultural producers and providers of tourist-related goods and services by reducing transportation costs and improving the reliability of access to transportation services (the “MCA Program”). II. Program Overview and Budget Vanuatu’s MCA Program consists of two principal components: (i) civil works for the reconstruction of priority transport infrastructure on eight islands, covering roads, wharfs, airstrips, and warehouses (the “Transport Infrastructure Project”); and (ii) institutional strengthening efforts in Vanuatu’s Public Works Department (“PWD”), including the provision of plant and equipment for maintenance, in order to facilitate enhanced sustainability and maintenance of infrastructure assets (the “Institutional Strengthening Project”).

  • Fifth National Report
    FIFTH NATIONAL REPORT Executive Summary Vanuatu is an array of 83 volcanic islands that were formed during the Miocene Era. Her geographical location means that Vanuatu’s biological diversity has developed commonalities with Pacific Island Countries in close proximity such as that of Fiji and Solomon Islands. Vanuatu is fundamentally an agricultural society, where the majority of the population is involved in farm and fishing activities, either for subsistence, livelihood or cash income. The Overarching Productive Sector Policy 2012-2017 also identifies agriculture, forestry and fisheries as priority areas for economic development. In 2013, the Vanuatu National Statistics Office estimated the population of Vanuatu to be 264,000 people, with 75% of the population living in the rural areas. A large portion of the population still depends heavily on the Vanuatu productive sector therefore, the Government has a crucial role to play in defining a policy and institutional framework which both enables and encourages good participation and high performance from all sector stakeholders. The country’s development goals and priorities in the Priorities and Action Agenda (PAA) 2006-2015 identify the productive sector as an engine for investment, economic growth and employment. The sector’s contribution to the overall economic growth has required a strategic commitment by the Government. This is so the Government can support and facilitate an enabling environment for private sector operators. The need to protect and conserve the resources that are critical elements of the productive sector saw Vanuatu commit itself internationally to the Convention on Biological Diversity in the 1992. Since its ratification of this Convention, Vanuatu has made significant progress in ensuring it meets all of its obligations.
