Overview

Kiribati is a remote Pacific island nation composed of 33 atolls and reef islands, highly vulnerable to climate change and rising sea levels. Its economy is small and heavily reliant on fishing licenses, remittances, and foreign aid, with limited natural resources. Tourism is a developing sector, but geographical isolation remains a challenge.
