Ministers and officials from 14 Pacific island countries have attended specialised training to ensure that their individual and collective voices will be heard loudly, clearly and convincingly at upcoming climate change negotiations in Lima and Paris.
The High Level Support Mechanism (HLSM) preparatory meeting, held last week in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, was specially designed to heighten the effectiveness of Ministers and their climate change officials in the negotiations process, thus improving the likelihood that Pacific island concerns and priorities are incorporated into the final outcomes.
