Representatives from the Palau International Coral Reef Center (PICRC), the Palau Governors’ Association, and The Nature Conservancy (TNC) recently concluded a learning exchange visit to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, deepening regional collaboration and strengthening collective efforts to build resilience for Pacific coral reefs and the communities that depend on them.
Hosted by the Great Barrier Reef Foundation (GBRF), the visit focused on sharing practical reef restoration solutions, innovative research, and scalable technologies that can inform locally led coral reef management across the Pacific. The exchange aligns with growing regional momentum to deliver on the Pacific Coral Reef Action Plan 2021–2030, a shared framework guiding coordinated action to safeguard coral reefs in the face of climate change.
