Antecedentes

The Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP), based in Apia, Samoa over the years called for the Pacific to be part of this capacity building initiative .

The need to build the capacity of people in the Pacific Islands on climate change in an integrated approach has formed the basis of a programme between the UNITAR C3D Partners and SPREP. This programme concerns the implementation of a long‐term capacity building programme to strengthen the human resource and institutional capacity of developing countries particularly the Non‐Annex I Parties to the UNFCCC.
