High-level conference on world food security: the challenges of climate change and bioenergy: climate change and food security in Pacific Island Countries

Climate Change Resilience, Biodiversity Conservation

Available Online

FAO/USP

Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP)

The overall purpose of this paper is to address food security and poverty reduction in the face of climate change and energy security. It attempts to bring to the fore food security threats associated with climate change in the food production and supply environments, as well as the broader livelihood and ecological changes that will occur as a consequence. Recognizing the different geographical regions around the Pacific and how climate change would impact on their food security situations opens up new opportunities for understanding why changes happen. An attempt will also be made to address how Pacific Islanders can be assisted to enhance their capacity to reduce risk and make optimal use of current climate resources in order to capitalize on benefits that may arise due to the changing climate. In doing so, it will attempt to highlight some of the current impacts of climate change reported by Pacific Island Countries in their national communications to the UNFCCC and their National Adaptation Programmes of Action (NAPAs), and what attempts have been made to seriously address these issues. It is recognized that climate change is an additional stress that needs to be managed by the agricultural and broader development communities but it should also be emphasized that climate change will further exacerbate current development stresses that are already plaguing the agriculture community and national governments. This paper will try to draw out these links and discuss ways to proactively address the situation now rather then later.

The project office in Suva, Fiji, shared with another NGO, was opened at the start of the Action, and initially provided adequate facilities and space. However, following the development of the BirdLife Fiji Programme, the office was moved to new premises in mid 2007 with significant improvements to office facilities which now comply with local health and safety regulations.
