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.

    These are such special islands and people. We spent 3 weeks there on Funafuti 23 years ago. We were there when a cyclone hit and they were celebrating 10 years of independance. Very special place. More churches and religious groups on one island than anywhere in the world. These people are survivors and they will endure for a long time yet.

    I think UN needs to provide continuously vital protections to nations like Tuvalu particularly to water and food security. Tuvalu is a nation that I think needs help with many issues such as erosion and seawalls is a major need. The sooner the UN and other countries react, I believe it will be a huge difference between now and then. May the blessings and glory of God Almighty shine upon the UN and other nations.

Geoff Lawton's team did re-greening and converted 10 acres of salty soils in the hot, dry desert near the Dead Sea into a thriving food forest which lasted long after the project finished.

    No tuvalu is responsible for climate change but all people from different nations are responsible for it, felling trees, more and more factories etc but nature has done nothing wrong we humans we harm the nature and nature in return harm back to people and the one who will suffer is those good ones not those human who create problems 😭😭

    Climate has been changing since forever. Way before humans started to pollute. You can primarily blame nature for its shifting climate rather than people. Do you think Humans caused the ice age to melt too? Even if people stopped pollution completely, climate would still change. Tuvalu needs more engineers and workshops to create more of their own products rather than just shipping it from other countries. With enough effort, Tuvalu will survive

    the problem is the western colonialism who have come in and given all our pacific islanders a story and shoved it down our throat and written history gave us government and said its the way to live. now we are supposed to apparently just all take this lifestyle and our poor country and our culture is lost. when the colonies from great Britain, Germany Spain, etc came to our islands that is when it has changed. we survived thousands of years to only give away our way of life to these so called western world system? rebuild our pacific islanders bring back our farming techniques back and start creating our people to be responsible for our future not dependant on the western culture and its fake money ideology. remember the people in the west here might have money but they need to work spend hours doing jobs like we are slaves. our pacific brothers and sisters need to rebuild the culture to be fully dependent on its true culture not western world culture. we need to stop chasing the fake dream that money is what makes everything better. what makes everything work harmoniously isn't more money, it is smart systems that are self-sufficient and reliant. look now we are looking at our home country like they need more money but what they need is the culture that survived long before these captain cook bastard came to stand the fuck up and tell these countries giving us money to fuck off and start farming and building a system that is all local and organic. poor people all been brainwashed to go to nz, Australia to live the dream. the worlds biggest scam.
