1 NAB National Advisory Board on Climate Change and Disaster Risk Reduction NAB stands for National Advisory Board on Climate Change and Disaster Risk Reduction The NAB is a committee made up of government and non-government members. Its primary purpose is to: Act as Vanuatu s supreme policy making and advisory body for all disaster risk reduction and climate change programs, projects, initiatives and activities. 1
2 Prior to mid-2012, there were two government bodies undertaking climate change and disaster risk reduction work: the National Advisory Committee on Climate Change (NACCC) and the National Task Force on Disaster Risk Reduction (NTF). There were many areas of overlap in climate change adaptation work and disaster risk reduction work. For reasons of efficiency, coordination, best use of resources, and stronger governance and direction, it was agreed by VMGD and NDMO that a merged body should be formed. The NAB will provide a: Focal point for coordinating CC and DRR efforts Coordinating body to discuss and develop integrated CC and DRR policy and positions for national action and international negotiations Reduce duplication increase collaboration work towards a comprehensive, consistent approach which addresses VANUATU s key priorities 2

4 In February 2012 NACCC and NTF hosted a 2-day Reorientation Meeting to discuss how to create an integrated approach. Over 50 participants, from Government, NGOs and Donors provided feedback on how an joint advisory board should work. A draft structure, roles and responsibilities was drafted by VMGD and NDMO and circulated for comment. The Council of Ministers endorsed the creation of the interim NAB on 15 October The NAB is co-chaired by the Director of VMGD: Mr Jotham Napat The Director of NDMO: Mr Shadrack Welegtabit Members are senior-level representatives from key sectoral government agencies, and NGO representatives - a representative of VHT Network, Vanuatu Climate Adaptation Network and VANGO. Members are nominated in the first instance by the Directors of VMGD and NDMO and appointed by NAB Co-Chairs at an official NAB meeting. Observers and visitors are welcome to attend NAB meetings on a request/invitation basis. 4
