There is no doubt that our climate is changing. This will
pose huge challenges to nations, organisations, enterprises,
cities, communities and individuals. Developing
countries will suffer most from the adverse consequences
of climate change, and some highly vulnerable regions
and people are already being affected.
There is increasing agreement that if temperatures rise
by no more than 2 °C the earth’s integrity can be preserved
and many of the potentially grave consequences
of climate change could be avoided. This threshold is

It is becoming evident that if high-consumption societies are to tackle climate
change, signifi cant changes in production processes as well as in consumption
patterns will be required. Such transformations cannot be achieved unless
climate change is taken into account in the general and sector-specifi c policies
which underlie economic activity and general social development. When industry,
energy producers or transport companies take action as a result of climate
policies, they are also infl uenced signifi cantly by other policies. The degree to

The GIZ project “Climate Protection through Forest Conservation in Pacific Island Countries” has produced a report on the existing legal framework in Vanuatu with regards to REDD+. This is a direct follow-up from the Vanuatu carbon rights study (2012).

Agriculture, livestock, and related activities make up roughly 25% of Uruguay’s economy. The contribution of agricultural activity to Uruguay’s exports is also large and growing. In this context, Minister Tabaré Aguerre presented on Uruguay’s AgroInteligente strategy, which includes: 1. Promotion of competitiveness and international integration 2. Sustainable intensification 3. Adaptation of production systems to climate change 4. Competitive inclusion of family agriculture in value chains 5.

This animation is a tool to raise awareness of the science and impacts of El Niño and La Niña and encourage Pacific Islanders to take early action in preparing for these extreme events. The film stars a comical and highly resilient crab and follows her escapades across the Pacific.

This paper sets out a framework for ‘Risk Governance’ to help practitioners mainstream climate and disaster risk1 into development decision making in the Pacific. It is based largely on the experiences of testing this framework in the Pacific via the Pacific Risk Resilience Programme (PRRP). It aims to:

i) articulate the rationale for strengthening risk governance as the foundation for transformational and therefore more sustained risk mainstreaming;

ii) draw upon lessons and challenges from mainstreaming other cross-cutting issues;

Most modern astronomers believe that the universe began about 15 billion years ago when a very dense mass of material exploded in the so-called BIG BANG.  This explosion sent all the materials of the universe outward in all directions, so that our universe is still expanding.  All the galaxies, stars, planets, asteroids and other bodies in the universe were formed or are forming from the gas and dust of this enormous explosion.    New stars continue to be formed, while others die or disappear into “black holes”.

Climate change is impacting on food security and biosecurity in the Pacific region by degradation of
food production areas (sea level rise, salinity, drought), devastation caused by extreme weather
events (cyclones, flooding) and impacts on recovery time such as replacement of lost crop
germplasm and the need to import food substitutes. The aim of this project was to identify the key
impacts of climate change on the unique cropping systems in four small Pacific nations (Tonga,
Vanuatu, Kiribati and Tuvalu). Information was collected by the development of a questionnaire
