Vanuatu 2030: The People’s Plan (National Sustainable Development Plan 2016–2030), 2016

Vanuatu 2030 is Vanuatu's overarching policy framework for sustainable development, for the period from 2016 to 2030. It enunciates the national vision of a stable, sustainable and prosperous Vanuatu. It articulates the development aspirations of Vanuatu, for a vibrant cultural identity underpinning a peaceful, just and inclusive society; supported by responsive and capable state institutions delivering quality public services, including health and education, to all citizens; maintaining a pristine natural environment on land and at sea that serves the country's food, cultural, economic and ecological needs; with enhanced resilience and adaptive capacity to climate change and natural disasters; and a stable economy based on equitable and sustainable growth that creates jobs and income earning opportunities accessible to all people in rural and urban areas. The Plan is founded on three pillars - the society pillar, environment pillar and economy pillar.
