The Solomon Islands initial National Communication is part of first steps taken by Solomon Islands toward fulfilling its commitments to positively address the causes and effects of Climate Change. This first edition reinforces the importance of public awareness on the implications of climate change and capacity building in the process of drawing-up appropriate responsive policies and action plans at the national level. Data on which this document is based are the first of its kind to be collected in Solomon Islands. Thus, this particular edition is critical as it contains information that subsequent Communications will use for benchmarking. It presents initial assessments on resources that the country would need in order to put to place effective responsive actions.
