SUVA, Fiji ----The Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC), in collaboration with the University of the South Pacific’s Pacific Centre for Environment and Sustainable Development (PACE-SD), organised a workshop on addressing and sustaining adaptation to climate change in rural communities through gender inclusive sustainable development on 24–28 June in Daku Village, Fiji.

The workshop brought together 12 local communities that are project sites for the PACE-SD Enhancing Climate Change Adaptation (ECCA) project funded by the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID). Workshop participants shared ideas, experiences and best practices in climate change adaptation and worked to incorporate a gender perspective into ongoing adaptation activities.
