This strategy provide board strategic guidance for nature conservation planning, prioritisation, and implementation in our region.

This factsheet connects People, Places and Knowledge and provides a doorway through which Pacific Islands protected area practitioners can share expertise and benefit from opportunities in this region.

Environmental data is important to the Pacific region. There is a need for historical and current evidence of the status and trends of various environmental resources and drivers of environmental change.

The EU funded SPREP BioScapes Programme and the Conservation and Environment Protection Authority of PNG have been working together on something special. ‘Tuki na Trausel’ is a comic book in pidgin language illustrated by the famous Papuan illustrator Gima Segore. In the book, you can join Tuki and his uncle as they learn about sea turtles in the Pacific! In one day, they find turtle nests, meet a large adult female turtle and watch hatchlings take their first steps into the ocean.

The Global Climate Change Alliance Plus Scaling up Pacific Adaptation (GCCA+ SUPA) project is about scaling up climate change adaptation measures in specific sectors supported by knowledge management and capacity building.

This manual is not a summary of all that is known about sea turtles. There are already very good books and resources that do that. It is also not exhaustive about research and monitoring. Nor it is the global synthesis of all turtle research options. Advanced research into breathing rates and blood plasma and stable isotopes and hearing and endocrinology are a bit out of our scope. Here, we will deal with the basics that inform conservation and management. And by the basics I mean how many nesting turtles do we have; where are they; what threats do they face; and why this knowledge is useful.

Fiji comprises of over 300 islands spread over an EEZ area of 1.29 million km2. Fiji is the fifth country that carried out an Impacts Analysis Methodology developed as part of the EU funded GCCA+SUPA project.

A Pacific tailored impacts methodology applied to examine residual impacts of how effective coastal protection designs were. Some designs were better served with a blend of nature-based climate solutions across our coasts.

The purpose to employ a GIS remote sensing specialist is the visualisation and quantitative documentation of climate change adaptation actions impact.

This report is structured in relation to the elements of climate change mitigation adaptation actions in Tonga which have elements in the GIS environment and within a relational database.
