The Pacific Islands Climate Change Programme (PICCAP) is a regional Climate Change Enabling Activities project. It involves ten Pacific island countries (Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Vanuatu) and is co-ordinated and executed by the South Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP). The project is designed to strengthen the capacities of the partici[ating countries, in terms of training, institutional strengthening and planning activities, to enable them to meet their reporting obligations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The project has six major capacity building objectives that lead to the following outputs: (1) an inventory of greenhouse gas sources and sinks; (2) an evaluation of mitigation options; (3) national vulnerability assessments; (4) an evaluation of adaptation options; (5) a national implementation plan and (6) the first National Communication to the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC. The concurrent activities of CC: TRAIN in the region are integrated into PICCAP and co-ordinated by SPREP to ensure complementarity.
