Abakoro, Kiribati: The epitome of Pacific atoll tranquility

Abangaro is a small atoll in the Gilbert Islands of the Republic of Kiribati, located in the central Pacific Ocean near the equator, and is one of 33 inhabited atolls in Kiribati. The atoll is low lying, with an average elevation of less than 2 meters above sea level, surrounded by coral reefs that form a tranquil lagoon, and surrounded by waters that are rich in biodiversity and are an important source of fisheries and livelihoods for the local population. Abacoro is sparsely populated and the community has retained its traditional Kiribati culture, with Kiribati (Gilbertese) as the main language of the inhabitants, who live at a slow pace and in harmony with nature. As one of the first areas in the world to welcome the New Year (due to the eastern side of the International Date Line), Abakoro, though small, carries the unique marine ecology and human charms of a Pacific Island nation, while also facing the existential challenges of rising sea levels, and serves as a micro-window to the impacts of climate change.
