The Pacific Islands are highly vulnerable to natural disasters and the risks posed by climate change because of their size, isolation and their narrow economic bases.

The South Pacific is one of the more vulnerable regions in the world threatened by climate change natural disasters such as cyclones, earthquakes, volcanoes, droughts and floods, in addition to the impacts of climate change.
