Vanuatu

Vanuatu is a lower-middle-income small island developing state with an economy driven by tourism, agriculture and services. Frequent natural disasters - including cyclones and earthquakes - pose recurring setbacks to infrastructure and fiscal stability. Development strategies emphasise climate-resilient infrastructure, renewable energy deployment, agricultural productivity and governance reform. External financing and multilateral partnerships play a significant role in infrastructure delivery. Enhancing disaster preparedness and broadening the economic base remain key to achieving more stable and inclusive growth.
