The KDP emphasizes sustainable management of marine resources, diversification of the fisheries sector, and promotion of renewable energy to achieve energy efficiency targets. It also focuses on improving access to quality healthcare, education, and basic services, while strengthening disaster risk management and climate change adaptation measures. The plan underscores the importance of good governance and infrastructure development to support economic growth and resilience.
Overall, the 2020–2023 KDP aims to build a resilient, inclusive, and sustainable future for Kiribati by aligning national development efforts with the overarching goals of the KV20
