SDG 13 • Climate Action • Fiji

Coastal change in Fiji is not abstract. It is already reshaping communities.

TideGuard is a clean, modern educational website that explains how sea-level rise, flooding, erosion, and saltwater intrusion affect coastal communities, and what resilience, adaptation, and relocation can look like in response.

Core risk
Sea-level rise

Low-lying coasts face growing pressure from inundation, erosion, and storm-driven flooding.

Human impact
Relocation

For some communities, adaptation may include moving homes and infrastructure inland.

Goal
Resilience

The site turns dense climate research into clear public-facing explanation and action.

Why this site exists
Dense climate reports are useful, but they are not fast enough for everyday understanding.
This site translates the issue into clear pages, visuals, and one interactive coastal risk map.
Problem

What is happening?

Fiji’s coastal communities are dealing with repeated flooding, shoreline erosion, stronger climate pressures, and saltwater intrusion that can damage homes, roads, farmland, and daily life.

People

Why it matters

Climate change is not only an environmental issue. It becomes a cultural, economic, and social issue when communities face loss of land, identity, and long-term stability.

Response

What this shows

The website breaks the issue into problem, impacts, solutions, sources, and a map-based view so the project feels concrete instead of vague.
