On 1 November 2013, the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) secured its status as a Regional Implementing Entity (RIE) under the Adaptation Fund of the Kyoto Protocol. SPREP has been working on achieving this accreditation since March 2010 at the direction of its Pacific island members. SPREP is now the third RIE under the Adaptation Fund; the other two are the West Africa Development Bank (accredited two years ago) and the Sahara and Sahel Observatory (accredited in early 2013), making this a landmark achievement for SPREP and for the Pacific region
