27 April 2015, Noumea, New Caledonia - Speaking before schoolchildren, sharing experiences at a community meeting and then presenting amongst scientists and PhD students in New Caledonia has been all in a day's work for Ms. Brianna Fruean, the Youth Ambassador for the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) on her first official activity.
The Regional Resilience to Climate Change and its Consequences Workshop from 23 – 27 April in New Caledonia has brought together a team from Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Tuvalu and Tuamotu French Polynesia to share their experiences in climate change with the communities in Ouvèa, New Caledonia. At 16 years of age, Ms. Fruean as the SPREP Youth Ambassador has also been a part of this team providing a youth perspective in the presentations.
