This update retains essential still-current information from the 1993 edition, introduces data that have become available subsequently and adds several new categories of information.

In this study, data was collected from various sources, including the National Statistical Office, Ministry of Health and Medical Services, Kiribati National Tourism Office, Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources Division, Public Utilities Board. A survey of a stratified sample of about 10% of households across each of the South Tarawa villages was also conducted.

This report is based on official trip made to Onotoa early this year 2014. The trip involved collecting information (updated) on sites, workshop and myna trap construction and destroying feeding and nesting areas.

The Government of Kiribati selected Abaiang and Tabiteuea North from a group of atolls considered ‘most vulnerable’. Then due to factors such as the inland shift of 80 metres of the coastline threatening Tebunginako village and the comparatively large population size and proximity to Tarawa, Abaiang was selected as the first atoll for the Whole of Island approach to take place.

This first fieldwork session was exploratory, aiming at launching a research programme concerning island vulnerability in the atoll states of Maldives and Kiribati.

This project demonstrates beach EbA at eroding beaches on Abaiang atoll, Kiribati, in cooperation with local communities, to extend their adaptive capacity to climate change and climate variability.
