Kiribati 20-year vision

The KV20 is a long term development blueprint for Kiribati, covering the period 2016 to 2036. The vision of the KV20 is for Kiribati to become a wealthy, healthy and peaceful nation. It seeks to achieve the development aspiration by maximising the development benefits from fisheries and tourism as key productive sectors.

The Vision recognises Kiribati’s vulnerability to climate change as a key constraint to achieving the desired outcomes. The Vision underscores the need to mainstream climate change adaptation and mitigation into various programmes.
