What is the Vanuatu Business Resilience Council?

The Vanuatu Business Resilience Council (VBRC) was established in late 2017 by support through UNDP’s Connecting Business initiative (CBI), and is a standing committee of Vanuatu’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

The VBRC’s role is to coordinate and strengthen engagement of the private sector in disaster risk reduction, emergency preparedness, response and recovery, and climate change adaptation and mitigation in Vanuatu.

The Council is currently made up of 7 executive members. These members are individuals of the private sector with representation from small and large business, tourism, finance, logistics and climate change advisory services.

The VBRC represents the private sector on the National Advisory Board on Climate Change and Disaster Risk Reduction (NAB) as an observer, representing local business and industry.
