SURVIVAL CHALLENGES: Food & Water Security in Tuvalu

Climate change and climate variability are key issues concerning small pacific island countries and territories. In the small island state of Tuvalu, the National Adaptation Programme of Action to Climate Change or NAPA, is effectively addressing climate change adaptation activities for each of the islands of Tuvalu. In this documentary titled “Survival Challenges: Food & Water Security in Tuvalu” - the film looks at the extreme vulnerability of Tuvalu to the impacts of climate change and sea level rise. It also looks at the food and water security challenges and how it’s reinforced the importance and resolve of this island nation to use their traditional knowledge in conserving life’s most precious resources – food and water. The NAPA project is administered and implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Tuvalu government.
