'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.

Pacific Island countries are at the forefront of the battle against climate change. With increased exposure and vulnerability of Pacific Islanders to weather extremes resulting from human-induced climate change, it is becoming increasingly important to understand local climate change knowledge and local perceptions on adaptation, and how these relate to resilience and to action on managing the impacts of climate change.
