A group of senior officials and thinkers from the Pacific get together in Suva, Fiji, to co-design a new and hopefully a game changing program valued around USD100 Million that was generously committed from the Bezos Earth Fund. The two main focus of this new program are 100% ocean management and food systems. SPC is leading this co-designing process and was supported by other regional organizations. Secretaries for MELAD Ms Saitofi Miika and MFMRD Mr Riibeta Abeta represented the voices of Kiribati in this meeting. We acknowledge Pacific-Community-SPC and the organizers for the excellent organization and convening of the meeting.
