Case studies include those from projects in Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia.

This report results from a complete attempt to identify guiding principles for International Ecosystem Management in the Pacific.

The project was implemented through SPREP with funds from UNEP and the Australian Government's AusAid programme, via the International Climate Change Adaptation Initiative.

Wati Talebula is a member of the Media Team providing coverage of the 9th Pacific Islands Conference on Nature Conservation and Protected Areas from 2 to 6 December in Suva, Fiji. This is a partnership between the Fiji National University (FNU), University of the South Pacific (USP), SPREP and Pacific Islands News Association (PINA) whereby a team of 10 journalism students are mentored by senior reporters as they cover the conference. This activity is funded by the Pacific Assistance Media Scheme (PACMAS).
