The Pacific Adaptation (Costs and Benefits) Scenarios study aimed to increase the capacity of decision makers in Pacific Island Countries to assess the costs and benefits of adaptation strategies. To that end, a ‘water security’ cost-benefit case study was undertaken in Tuvalu. This is the summary for policy makers from the case study. This publication was produced under the Pacific-Australia Climate Change Science Adaptation Planning (PACCSAP) programme.
