Maldives has been a development success in the recent decades, mostly attributed to the revenues from a flourishing tourism industry that comprises around 25% of the national gross domestic product (GDP). The magnitude of the economic impacts caused by the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has exposed the weaknesses of the economic model implemented in Maldives over the recent decades. It will take months or even years to reach the tourism goals of the country. The country’s recovery will largely depend on the rapid transformation and diversification of its economic activities. Reliable and affordable energy supply are needed to address the transformation challenge. Maldives does not have reserves of fossil fuels, but it has abundant renewable energy resources, including solar, wind, and ocean. Investments in renewable energy are an opportunity to lower the costs of electricity production and reduce fuel imports and the burden on government finances. This Road Map establishes the guidelines to transit from a fossil-fuel- based energy sector to a cost-effective, business competitive, affordable, and sustainable renewable energy.Item A rapid assessment of natural environments in the maldives(International Union for Conservation of Nature އިންޓަރނޭޝަނަލް ޔޫނިއަން ފޯ ކޮންސަރވޭޝަން އޮފް ނޭޗަރ Government of Maldives ގަވަރމެންޓް އޮފް މޯލްޑިވްސް, 2020) Dryden, Charlie; ޗާލީ ޑްރައިޑެން; Basheer، Ahmed; އަޙްމަދު ބަޝީރު; Grimsditch، Gabriel; ގްރިމްސްޑިޗް ގެބްރިއެލް; Mushtaq، Azim; އާޒިމް މުސްތާޤު; Newman، Steven; ސްޓީވެން ނިއުމަން; Shan، Ahmed; އަޙްމަދު ޝާން; Shidha، Mariyam; މަރިޔަމް ޝިދާ; Zahir Hussain; ޙުސައިން ޒާހިރުItem A troubled future for democracy : the results of the 2015 Maldives democracy survey(Transparency Maldives, 2015) Sharma, Rakesh; Zahir, Azim; ރާކޭޝް ޝަރްމާ; އާޒިމް ޒާހިރުSince the first multiparty elections in 2008, democratisation in the Maldives has been challenged in many ways. One of the main factors is political turmoil. By the time the second multiparty presidential elections in 2013 finally came to an end after a series of delays and cancellations by the Supreme Court, the country appeared to be at a political breaking point. The atmosphere of relative calm that prevailed after the losing parties conceded defeat soon again gave way to political uncertainty. The recent arrest and prosecution of politicians has worsened the crisis of politics. This bitter partisan politics has not spared key democratic institutions, such as the judiciary and the parliament, further challenging democratisation. Successful democratisation also depends on the availability of a supporting set of democratic orientations and values held by citizens. It also depends on the political empowerment and engagement of citizens. The 2015 Democracy Survey, like the benchmark Democracy Survey in 2013, is premised in the widely held beliefs that successful democratisation everywhere depends on supporting values and orientations – that is, a democratic political culture. The survey provides a wealth of reliable and systematic information about Maldivian political culture. Our hope is that the systematic evidence presented here will help policymakers, civic and political organisations, state and private institutions, and the international community, in addressing some of the many challenges of democratisation in the Maldives. The 2015 Democracy Survey is also a nationwide survey of the adult population in the Maldives aged 18 years or older. It is based on a random sample stratified proportionally across the regions of the Maldives. The 2014 Maldives Population and Housing Census data was used as the listing of people above 18 years of age. This is the most up-to-date listing available in the country. Census 2014 preliminary data shows there are 341,256 people above 18 years of age. Hence, the target population for the survey is 341,256. The size of the sample for the survey is 1,064 people. The report has five sections: section I concerns the more general citizen orientations and views on democracy and the levels of engagement that together partly constitute “political culture”. Section II is about their views on more specific aspects of the political context in the Maldives. The report then presents, in section III, levels of public confidence in a range of institutions important for democracy and the country. In section IV, the analysis focuses on citizens’ views on gender equality and women’s political participation. Finally, section V deals with people’s attitudes towards political parties that form the backbone of political society.Item ABC education book on climate change(Live & Learn Environmental and Community, 2012-04) Ministry of Education and TrainingItem Accountability in practice : social audit case studies from Fuvahmulah city, Addu city, Laamu Gan, Kulhudhuffushi city(Transparency Maldives ޓްރާންސްޕޭރެންސީ މޯލްޑިވްސް Anti-Corruption Commission of the Maldives އެންޓިކޮރަޕްޝަން ކޮމިޝަން އޮފް ދަ މޯލްޑިވްސް, 2023) ފާތިމަތު ނަޒީފާ ސަޢީދު; Saeed, Fathimath Nazeefa; އައިޝަތު މަނާލް ޚާލިދު; Khalid، Aishath Manaal; މަރިޔަމް އަޖްފާން; Ajfaan، Mariyam; ހަސަން ހަމޫދް; Hamoodh, HassanItem Accounting for nature to safeguard the Maldives development(Ministry of Tourism and Envornment, Republic of Maldives, 2025) Ministry of Tourism and Envornment, Republic of Maldives; މިނިސްޓްރީ އޮފް ޓޫރިޒަމް، ރިޕަބްލިކް އޮފް މޯލްޑިވްސްItem Action and conservation plan : Addu atoll biosphere reserve(United States Agency for International Development, 2024-11-01) United States Agency for International Development (USAID); ޔުނައިޓެޑް ސްޓޭޓްސް އެޖެންސީ ފޯ އިންޓަނޭޝަނަލް ޑިވެލޮޕްމަންޓްItem Addendum to environmental impact assessment for the Male’ west coast re-development project(2016-01) Musthafa, AmirThis is the First Addendum to the approved main EIA prepared for the redevelopment of the Male’ west coast area. The main EIA was approved on 10th September 2015. The proponent of the project is Ministry of Housing and Infrastructure. This addendum is based on the proposed transplantation of 70 young coconut palms from K. Kaashidhoo to the on going Male’ West Coast Development project. It is a legal requirement under the Amended EIA Regulation 2012 that EIAs/Addendums be prepared and approved for projects that may generate negative environmental impacts. This Addendum has been prepared as per the approved Terms of Reference (TOR) on 7 December 2015. The scope of this EIA involves studying the existing environmental condition of the proposed project areas and surrounding environment, identifying potential environmental impacts, propose environmental management and mitigation measures to minimize environmental impacts and propose an environmental monitoring plan. The palms are to be uprooted from the site for the proposed construction of jail and from households. This site for jail construction is at the western end of the island and is under the Jurisdiction of Maldives Correctional Services. It is envisaged that the project will have several socio-economic benefits. This includes providing a means of shelter and relaxation to the community in Male’ City, especially in the Maafannu district. Moreover, it would assist in alleviating the burden these large no. of trees had been causing the community in K. Kaashidhoo. From this perspective, the project can be regarded as means to balance the amenities in both communities. The economic benefits to the coconut tree owners from the sale of the coconut palms could also be considered as a direct positive impact. Furthermore, the Kaashidhoo council had committed to plant 2 trees for each palm that has been removed in more strategic locations in the island, where tree plantation is required. Negative impacts include the holes that would be left after the digging. It may become a public nuisance, although the area is seldom used by the community. As a mitigation measure, the holes would be filled with sand available onsite, without the need for dredging. Provisions such as monitoring are proposed to understand the overall impacts of the project over the long term. Therefore, considering the beneficial nature of the project for both communities, and minimum environmental impact that can be easily mitigated, it is proposed to proceed with the project. However, it is recommended to have proper monitoring in place to observe any future impacts that project may result in.Item Addressing fibreglass waste management in the boat-building industry in the Maldives: a case study of r.

Accordingly, the domestic economy is estimated to have expanded by 5.1%, an acceleration from the 4.7% observed in 2023. Despite the headwinds, the Maldivian economy demonstrated resilience and adaptability, driven by the growth from the tourism sector and sectors related to the tourism sector, including the transportation and communication sector and wholesale and retail trade sector. Meanwhile, the fisheries and construction sector remained subdued. As for inflation in the domestic economy, the average rate of inflation decelerated to 1.4% in 2024 compared to the previous year, owing to downward inflationary pressures from prices of information and communications services as well as prices of energy-related services. However, downward inflationary pressures were partly offset by the higher prices of food items and tobacco, together with the increased cost of services of restaurants and cafés. In 2024, the current account deficit narrowed slightly, owing to the significant improvement in the services account, driven by the growth in the tourism sector and increase in travel receipts. However, the merchandise trade deficit widened, reflecting increased imports and decline in exports of goods. Meanwhile, the net inflows from financial account mainly comprised inflows from FDIs and other investments. Overall, the balance of payments recorded a surplus in 2024, while gross international reserves recorded a slight increment, primarily owing to US$400 million swap obtained from Reserve Bank of India (RBI) in October 2024. According to the growth forecasts estimated jointly by the MMA and the Ministry of Finance and Planning in October 2024, real GDP is projected to grow by 6.4% in 2025, driven primarily by an uptick in real activity in the tourism sector. The risks to the growth outlook for 2025 remain mixed but tilted to the downside, with delayed fiscal reforms, global trade tensions and commodity price volatility, particularly fuel and food. On the upside, operationalisation of the new passenger terminal of Velana International Airport could boost tourism activity and economic growth. Looking into inflationary pressures, domestic policy adjustments and expenditure consolidation measures could exert upward pressure on domestic prices. Further, geopolitical tensions and supply chain disruptions may also drive higher import prices. In 2024, the MMA continued to adopt an accommodative monetary policy to maintain price stability and support sustained economic growth, while mitigating pressures in the foreign exchange market. To strengthen the regulatory framework, Regulation on Foreign Currency was brought into effect on 1 October 2024, superseding the longstanding Monetary Regulation of 1987, and was later repealed with the enactment of the Foreign Currency Act. Further efforts to ease the US dollar shortage were sustained through continued intervention in the foreign exchange market. Despite the postpandemic improvements in foreign currency liquidity, the banking system observed a reduction in foreign currency liquidity during the year. To alleviate the shortage, the MMA lowered the foreign currency minimum reserve requirement (MRR) from 10.0% to 7.5% effective 24 October 2024. The financial sector continues to demonstrate resilience reflected by the ongoing efforts of the MMA to uphold a stable and robust financial system. Commercial banks, which hold over 90% of the sector’s assets, contributed to the sector’s strength and remained well-capitalized, demonstrating resilience through asset growth, robust capital strength and high profitability indicators. The sector also indicated a stable level of non-performing loans (NPLs) and liquidity buffers at prudent levels. The performance of other financial institutions also remained stable, with finance companies remaining well capitalized and the general insurance sector recording strong growth and sound capitalization, supported by an increase in gross written premiums (GWP). In line with efforts to strengthen the legal framework of the foreign exchange market and support financial sector stability, the Regulation on Money Changing Business was issued on October 1, 2024. The MMA continued its efforts to enhance the development of the financial sector by promoting financial inclusion, strengthening consumer protection and modernizing financial infrastructure. As such, MMA spearheaded the formulation of National Financial Inclusion Strategy (NFIS), with preparations underway for the official launch in 2025. Throughout the year, the MMA prioritized advancing the growth and development of Islamic finance in the Maldives through targeted policy initiatives. The MMA also inaugurated its first Research Conference and the Joint Research Workshop in collaboration with Asia-Pacific Applied Economics Association (APAEA) and Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI) during the year. The aim of both the conference and workshop was to foster dialogue between policymakers, industry experts and academics, while promoting research collaborations between the MMA and external researchers on topics relevant to the MMA. During the conference, the MMA Research Fund was launched, establishing an initial allocation of MVR1.0 million, with the aim of promoting research culture. Recognizing the critical role of human capital in advancing the financial system and institutional progress, the MMA remained steadfast in its effort to attract, develop and retain a highly skilled taskforce. And as part of this commitment, three staff members were given the opportunity to pursue postgraduate studies in the fields of Cybersecurity Management, Forensic Accounting and Accounting and Data Analytics. Further, employees participated in various short-term trainings aimed at enhancing professional competencies across key areas. The MMA also continued to support staff members by extending financial benefits, which included short-term loan through initiatives such as staff loan schemes. The Maldivian economy remained on a steady path of recovery during the year, despite ongoing global and domestic uncertainties. Against this backdrop, the MMA continued to uphold its mandate of price stability and fostering inclusive, stable, and sustainable economic growth.Item Annual report : 2020(ސްޓޭޓް އިލެކްޓްރިކް ކޮމްޕެނީ, 2020) ސްޓޭޓް އިލެކްޓްރިކް ކޮމްޕެނީ; State Electric Company; STELCOItem Annual report and financial Statements 2008(Monetary Authority, 2009) Monetary Authority; މޯލްޑިވްސް މަނިޓަރީ އޮތޯރިޓީItem Annual report and financial Statements 2012(Monetary Authority Maldives, 2012) Maldives Monetary Authority; މޯލްޑިވްސް މަނިޓަރީ އޮތޯރިޓީItem Annual solar resources report : for solar meteorological stations after completion of 12 month of measurements(World Bank, 2017-06) Suri, Marce; Cebecauer, Tomas; Schnierer, Branislav; Skoczek, Artur; Chrkavy, Daniel; Suriova, Nada
