SPC/GTZ Regional Programme Adaptation to Climate Change in the Pacific Islands

2010
The effects of climate change require strong actions from policy-makers, extension officers and communities to strengthen resilience to the expected negative impacts. Sea-level rise, changes in precipitation patterns and other effects cannot be avoided, but there are many means to reduce the vulnerability of communities. To equip the actors in this adaptation process with the right tools, the Regional Programme on Adaptation to Climate Change in the Pacific Island Region is setting up a knowledge management system including a database on climate change. A collection of best practices from the region and other parts of the world will be part of this venture. The collection of best practices from the region will be completed by the thematic teams of SPC Land Resources Division. This desk-study gathers examples from across the globe.

The Pacific-German Regional Programme on Adaptation to Climate Change supports the endeavour of Pacific countries to mainstream adaptation to climate change. Integrating climate change issues into the strategies and services of SPC programmes, and into the land use strategies and planning documents of Tonga and Vanuatu, are central aspects of the programme. But what do we mean when we talk about mainstreaming? Usually it is equivalent to integrating’ an issue into another area, such as a policy or an institution. In this document, mainstreaming adaptation refers to the incorporation of measures strategies and information to reduce vulnerability to climate change, in policies, strategies, programmes, development planning, institutions and decision-making processes.

UNEP Regional Seas Programme

2010
Climate change is altering and damaging marine and coastal ecosystems around the world. Sea-level rise, erosion, the increased severity of storms and flooding, ocean acidification and coral bleaching are already causing devastation to coasts around the world. This affects the livelihoods of people that depend on the services provided by these ecosystems, including food security, clean drinking water, medicines, recreational values and often the buffer that they offer to communities from extreme weather events. However, ecosystems need to be managed so that they continue to provide these important services and help coastal communities adapt to the impacts they face from climate change. Ecosystem-based management actions can help communities adapt to climate change, and are already an integral part of UNEP’s Programme of Work.

This book is one of the main contributions of the Commission on Ecosystem Management (CEM) of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) to the international discussions on how we should address climate change impacts on natural and human systems, including ecosystems and the services they provide to society and communities. It was produced through contributions of CEM members worldwide and those from other scientists with key experience in research on, and implementation of climate change adaptation measures. Eleven case studies were selected by a team of editors, covering different ecosystems and regions around the world.
