"The details of a new visa enabling Tuvaluan citizens to permanently migrate to
Australia were released this week.

The visa was created as part of a bilateral treaty Australia and Tuvalu signed
in late 2023, which aims to protect the two countries’ shared interests in
security, prosperity and stability, especially given the “existential threat
posed by climate change”.

The Australia–Tuvalu Falepili Union, as it is known, is the world’s first
bilateral agreement to create a special visa like this in the context of
climate change.

Here’s what we know so far about why this special visa exists and how it will
work."
