Research Abstract
The sea-level rise has already influenced several islands in Solomon Islands. Due to technical and financial reasons, the relocation project had not been implemented during the research period, so that the post-effect of the relocation project was not directly investigated. On the other hands, small island which was remote from other islands experienced high population density, sea level rise, resource scarcity, and unstable transport and showed high prevalence of mental health issues. Public health challenges will be to control non-communicable diseases in urban areas and mental health in such remote islands. It is recommended that adaptation to the sea-level rise should integrate solutions for such public health issues.
