description Statement of the Problem:Small-scale fishers are negatively affected by climate change in Vanuatu. Livelihoods and health of coastalcommunities that heavily rely on farming and fishing for subsistence and incomes face serious risks. Aquaculture, marine protectedareas through natural resource management (NRM), and low-cost inshore fish aggregating device (FAD) can improve the economicconditions of coastal communities in Vanuatu. The purpose of this study is to assess the fisheries development strategies in Vanuatu,determine any economic benefits, and provide some policy recommendations for consideration by the national government.
