The review includes an assessment of institutional capacities, synergies and inter-linkages with the objective of delivering an efficient and sustainable waste management service
This document represents a concise report on the state of the environment for Kiribati published in 1994.
Global warming and associated sea-level rise are undoubtedly significant challenges for SIDS, including atoll nations such as Kiribati. Nevertheless, securing small island state futures also requires a renewed commitment to addressing the obvious and immediate threats of urbanisation, pollution and sanitation which is the subject of this paper.
The Strategy covers the period from 2008 until 2011 with biennial reviews to ensure all emerging issues are included and addressed.
Documenting the development trends and implications on biodiversity within the Republic of Kiribati
This Strategy was developed through a number of consultations including interviews with representatives of line ministries, development partners and supporting agencies, NGOs and the general public.
This Kiribati V&A Assessment Methodology (KVAAM) is prepared as a tool to assess studies and assessment reports that have already been prepared. It will also assist in determining whether, from much of the information already available in reports on the vulnerability of Kiribati to climate change, additional information is needed.

The following review, prepared jointly by the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environmental Programme (SPREP) and the Environmental Defenders Office Ltd (EDO NSW), updates and builds on the reviews conducted in the early 2000s under the International Waters Project.
The aim of this guide is to deliver nationally prioritised key messages relevant to climate change science, the effects of climate change on the Pacific and options to mitigate its causes and to adapt to expected changes.
The State of the Environment Report of Kiribati, 2000 - 2002
This study was undertaken with the Government of Kiribati to examine the biodiversity benefits,feasibility and costs of removing key predators from Malden Island. If Malden could be made predator-free it could potentially provide an important seabird island and back-up to Kiritimati (Christmas Island) which is the global stronghold for Phoenix petrels (Pterodroma alba) and White-throated storm-petrels (Nesofregetta fuliginosa), and supports other important seabird and landbird populations
This policy is an important road map to achieving both the development and management aspirations of Kiribati for sustainable fisheries in the long term.
Kiribati is one of 15 countries participating in PacWaste project, with activities taking place in the project domains of healthcare waste, e-waste and asbestos.
The status, trends and threats of Kiribati’s biodiversity are summarised in this report. It also illustrates how biodiversity conservation and management are mainstreamed across different sectors to effectively address different biodiversity conservation and management issues
