What are SIDS?

Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are a group of 39 States and 18 Associate Members of United Nations regional commissions.
They are located in three regions: the Caribbean, the Pacific, and the Atlantic, Indian Ocean and South China Sea (AIS).
The population of all SIDS is 65 million, slightly less than 1% of the worldrCOs population, yet this group faces disproportionate social, economic, and environmental challenges due to their unique characteristics.

SIDS are some of the worldrCOs most disaster-prone countries.
They have high exposure and vulnerability to hazards such as cyclones, floods, droughts, sea-level rise, earthquakes, and tsunamis.
The disaster mortality rate in SIDS is more than double the global average, according to Sendai Framework Monitor data.
Disasters in SIDS affect a larger share of the population: on average, 18% of the total population is affected after each disaster in SIDS, compared to 6% in non-SIDS countries.
SIDS disaster costs are among the highest in the world, due to their size and remoteness, narrow resource base and the recurrence of more intense and frequent disasters while still recovering.
Over the past fifty years, SIDS have lost $153 billion due to weather, climate, and water-related hazards.
On average, SIDS experience 2.1 % of GDP loss due to disasters, whereas other countries face an average of 0.3 % of GDP.
Only 39% of SIDS have reported having a multi-hazard early warning system
From 2000 to 2020, extreme weather has already cost vulnerable island nations $141 billion rCo or about $2,000 per person

The Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are a grouping of developing countries which are small island countries and small states that tend to share similar sustainable development challenges. These include small but growing populations, limited resources, remoteness, susceptibility to natural disasters, vulnerability to external shocks, excessive dependence on international trade, and fragile environments. Their growth and development are also held back by high communication, energy and transportation costs, irregular international transport volumes, disproportionately expensive public administration and infrastructure due to their small size, and little to no opportunity to create economies of scale. They consist of some of the most vulnerable countries to anthropogenic climate change.

The SIDS were first recognized as a distinct group of developing countries at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in June 1992. The Barbados Programme of Action was produced in 1994 to assist the SIDS in their sustainable development efforts. The United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States (UN-OHRLLS) represents the group of states.[1]
List of SIDS

As of 2023, the United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States (UN-OHRLLS) lists 57 such nations (39 sovereign states and 18 dependent territories).[2] These nations are grouped into three geographical regions: the Caribbean;[3] the Pacific;[4] and Africa, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean and South China Sea (AIMS),[5] including 18 Associate Members of the United Nations Regional Commissions. Each of these regions has a regional cooperation body: the Caribbean Community, the Pacific Islands Forum, and the Indian Ocean Commission respectively, which many SIDS are members or associate members of. In addition, most (but not all) SIDS are members of the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS), which performs lobbying and negotiating functions for the SIDS within the United Nations System.
