Twenty years down the road from the Barbados Programme of Action (1994) and ten years after the Mauritius Strategy (2004), Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are in Apia, Samoa to take stock and define future priorities at the Third International Conference on SIDS, from 1 to 4 September. This Conference carries strategic stakes and will help to shape a stronger, new global sustainable development agenda beyond 2015. It must recognise the importance of SIDS in providing early-warning to the planet as a whole - as custodians of vast ocean spaces that are essential for food security, biodiversity, carbon sequestration and cultural diversity.

Moreover, the Pacific region requires special assistance for the more effective implementation of the World Heritage Convention, as it faces special challenges related to its unique geographical, cultural and social characteristics.
