This report presents a summary of an Ecosystem and Socio-economic Resilience Analysis and Mapping (ESRAM) project in three communities in South Malaita, Malaita Province in the Solomon Islands; Tapa'atewa, Eliote and Ori Pre.

This report presents an Ecosystem and Socio-economic Resilience Analysis Mapping (ESRAM) process for three communities in South Malaita - Eliote, Ori Ore and Tapa'atewa. The purpose of an ESRAM is to generate robust planning baseline to inform the identification of ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) options for strengthening the socio-ecological resilience of communities tot he impacts of climate change, environmental pressures, and other direct anthropogenic impacts.

Conduct a comprehensive inventory of the current state of all planted tree seedlings and other floral species within the specified areas (39 hectares (ha) in the UNELCO compound within the Tagabe river lower catchment and 33 ha in Aku Farm within the Tagabe river upper catchment).

On Taveuni Island, organic farmer Liopoli Cirimaitoga is showing that with care and dedication, the land can heal. By reforesting 100 acres of once-degraded land, Mr. Cirimaitoga is proving that farmers can sustain their livelihoods without encroaching into the Taveuni Forest Reserve. Through the Teitei Taveuni Land Care Project and support from #PEBACC+, he’s restoring the soil, supporting biodiversity, and securing a greener future for his community.

L’analyse du régime de feu dans la haute vallée de la Kouaoua entre dans le cadre du projet démonstateur PEBACC+. Elle repose sur 108 images satellites de 2000 à 2023 autour des tribus de Konoyes-Shaoué, Ouérou-Pimé et Méchin. Les 1 014 feux recensés ont brûlé 3 281 hectares. The analysis of the fire regime in the upper Kouaoua Valley is part of the Pacific Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change (PEBACC+) plus project demonstration efforts. The analysis is based on 108 satellite images from 2000 to 2023 around the tribes of Konoyes-Shaoué, Ouérou-Pimé and Méchin. The 1,014 fires recorded burned 3,281 hectares of land.

REFORESTATION of key ecosystems to improve and extend forest cover, improve forest health and function, enhance biodiversity and sustain freshwater supply on Taveuni. PEBACC+ Project will work with communities to plant native tree seedlings.

Le projet régional PEBACC+ (Pacific Ecosystem-Based Adaptation to Climate Change Plus) vise à renforcer la résilience des écosystèmes, des économies et des populations par la mise en oeuvre démonstrative, la planification et l’institutionnalisation de l’approche de l’Adaptation fondée sur les Ecosystèmes (AfE) et les Solutions fondées sur la Nature (SfN) pour l’adaptation au changement climatique.

The Pacific Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change Plus/Phase 2 (PEBACC+) Project seeks to strengthen the resilience of ecosystems, economies, and communities to the impacts of climate change in Fiji, New Caledonia, Wallis-and-Futuna, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu. The PEBACC+ Project will develop, sustain, and institutionalise ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) to climate change in these five countries and territories.

Sans attendre les résultats de l’ESRAM, des activités dedemonstration de terrain d’adaptation au changementclimatique fondée sur les écosystèmes seront soutenuestechniquement et financièrement grâce à l’implicationdes autorités publiques du Territoire et descommunautés locales des sites pilotes sélectionnés etde leurs représentants

Ecosystem and socio-economic resilience analysis and mapping (ESRAM). The ESRAM process is to generate a robust planning baseline to inform the identification of EbA options for strengthening the socio-ecological resilience of selected areas to the impacts of climate change and direct anthropogenic impacts on ecosystems and socio-economy. EbA options will point to specify key climate change issues and specific sites for which impactful EbA projects can then be developed and implemented.
