'Oceanic diplomacy' as concept and practice : When practitioners and scholars think of Pacific diplomacy, they usually have in mind a form of diplomacy built on Western practices and protocols, and focused on the engagement between modern sovereign Pacific Islands states and their accredited ambassadors.

Coral reefs are increasingly threatened by a range of human-induced stressors from anthropogenic local drivers of loss including overfishing, pollution, and coastal development to regional stressors such as climate change and ocean acidification. These stressors lead to multiple changes in coral reef structure, function and composition, threatening the well-being, livelihoods and cultural identify of the millions of people who rely on them worldwide.
