Abstract

Description

Dr. Kalim U. Shah, a University of Delaware Professor of Energy and Environmental Policy serving as the Director of the University’s Island Policy Lab and a World Bank Climate Advisor, asserts that the renewal of the US-Marshall Islands Compact of Free Association "marks a significant shift in how the agreement tackles climate change" and by "allocating funds specifically for resilience... Washington not only helps the [Marshall Islands] prepare for climate-induced threats but also reinforces its military presence..." The views expressed are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect East-West Center policies or positions.
