About

Funded by the Kiwa Initiative. The project aims to strengthen the adaptive capacity and economic resilience of Pacific Islanders specifically to improve shoreline stability, coastal protection and sustainable livelihoods through Nature-based Solutions and aims to: 1) improve climate risk reduction and coastal protection through restoration and management in Fiji, Samoa and Timor-Leste; 2) Improve livelihoods and incentives for IPLCs that support management and restoration of coastal ecosystems, reduce drivers of degradation and address gender inequities; 3) enhance scientific collaboration, shared learning and knowledge exchange on NbS across the Pacific Island region.

The Pacific Islands Roundtable for Nature Conservation (PIRT) is supported by the Pacific BioScapes Programme.

The Pacific BioScapes Programme is a European Union (EU) funded action, managed and implemented by the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP).
The Programme contributes to the sustainable development of Pacific Small Island Developing States through the implementation of 30 focused activities taking place across a diversity of ecosystems in 11 countries (Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati, Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga and Vanuatu) that will address critical issues concerning coastal and marine biodiversity, and ecosystem-based responses to climate change adaptation.
