The AISCC member states—Cabo Verde, Comoros, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Madagascar, Mauritius, Sao Tome and Principe, Seychelles, and Tanzania (Zanzibar)—are among the nations most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, including sea-level rise, cyclones, droughts, coastal erosion, and flooding. However, these countries possess limited institutional capacity to map their natural resources and conduct multi-hazard assessments, which hinders their access to climate finance and the implementation of appropriate resilience measures.
