PACC Demonstration Guide: Improving domestic rainwater harvesting systems in Niue. (PACC Technical Report No. 14)

Abstract

In Niue, the Pacific Adaptation to Climate Change (PACC) project is building resilience to climate variability and climate change by improving the country’s water resources management. This technical report was developed as part of the PACC demonstration project, to detail the process undertaken to design and implement a rainwater tank manufacturing plant in Niue and supply eligible households on Niue with rainwater harvesting systems. The goal of the project is to provide an additional source of water to Niueans, by developing the country’s rainwater harvesting capacity at domestic level. Initially aimed at the most vulnerable households on Niue, the project has been extended to all 14 villages on the island under additional funding called PACC+.
