This document sets forth a vision for a tourism industry in the Maldives that leads the world in climate change innovation by centering communities and regenerating nature. This vision was informed by research conducted over a year and key conversations with a wide range of stakeholders. Designed to align Goal 4 of the Maldives Fifth Tourism Master Plan— Build Climate Resilience and Protect Natural Assets—the Action Plan outlines five strategic objectives for achieving this vision, including integrating community experiences and priorities, protecting destination assets, regenerating nature, diversifying business models, and aligning with global initiatives. Core actions are presented under each objective, linking to the 10 Business Climate Action Investments presented in Section 3—a “menu” of innovative adaptation solutions businesses can invest in today to increase their resilience for tomorrow—and guidance on financing and practical steps businesses can take to adopt these critical adaptation measures.
