With climate change threatening Pacific Island communities, collaboration is more crucial than ever. A regional learning and knowledge exchange event united community leaders, experts, and practitioners from four Pacific Island countries and territories to drive forward Nature-based Solutions through shared expertise. Hosted under the Pacific Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change (PEBACC+) project, the event is implemented by the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) with funding from the Kiwa Initiative and the French Facility for Global Environment.
The five-day learning event, from 25 February to 1 March 2025, convened 15 participants from Fiji, New Caledonia, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu. Designed as a platform for peer-to-peer learning, the event showcased best practices, traditional knowledge, and innovative strategies for implementing Nature-based Solutions through ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) to enhance climate resilience.
