Republic of Vanuatu: priorities and action agenda 2006 - 2015 : "an educated, healthy and wealthy Vanuatu"

Abstract

Government policy is to raise the welfare of the people of Vanuatu. Achieving this requires formal development planning. Vanuatu has been working on this since 1997 when the Comprehensive Reform Program was initiated. There was a summit in 2002 during which the Prime Minister announced five priorities. This was followed in 2003 by a Prioritised Action Agenda (PAA) which built upon these five priorities. This document is an update of the PAA, building on the experience of the past, taking account of what has been achieved and the challenges that remain.
