The Republic of Nauru is embarking on a long-term project that will reform the nation in the face of economic challenges and climate change, which as well as dealing with issues like food and water security, includes the “Higher Ground Initiative” – relocating almost the entire population from the coast to higher ground. Through the fund, Nauru has established as an innovative way to finance some of the island’s climate infrastructure initiatives.
Treasury Climate Fund
The Treasury fund contribution is an eligible investment pathway for Nauru citizenship by investment (NECRCP). The Contributions paid to the fund will enable the Nauruan government to fund various development projects, potentially including climate resilience initiatives, infrastructure improvements, renewable energy projects, and sustainable economic diversification efforts. By contributing to Nauru, you are securing citizenship as well as playing a part in the nation’s sustainable development. The Republic of Nauru welcomes its new climate citizens under the government’s Economic and Climate Resilience Citizenship Program.
“We will not wait for the waves to wash away our homes and infrastructure”,
David Adeang, President of the Republic of Nauru
