The European Union (EU) - North Pacific - Readiness for El Niño (RENI) regional project, implemented by SPC, is about communities working to secure food and water resources ahead of drought. The three-year (2017 - 2020) project is funded with €4.5 million from the EU and implemented in collaboration with the governments and peoples of the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), Marshall Islands (RMI) and Palau. The specific objective of the RENI project is to strengthen the implementation of a sustainable, multi sectoral, multi stakeholder approach to readiness for future El Niño events.
The project will involve the state government, national government agencies, non-government organisations, communities and wherever possible the private sector too. The project is about enhancing the resilience of people and communities, and in this respect a participatory and community-led approach is adopted throughout the design and implementation with a particular emphasis on applying a gender-sensitive/rights-based approach.
The Project team after consultation with the local communities and other relevant stakeholders, was able to identify 5 of the community buildings in Yap Proper that are most suitable for rainwater harvesting:
