Pacific Alliance For Sustainability-Update

This update outlines the Pacific Alliance for Sustainability (GEF-PAS), encompassing 24 approved projects funded with over US$98 million. It details key focus areas: International Waters, Biodiversity, Climate Change Mitigation, Climate Change Adaptation, and Persistent Organic Pollutants. Notable project statuses, including those in the Micronesia Challenge and Renewable Energy initiatives, are highlighted. The meeting in Palau addressed governance structures, and GEF is working with donors to create a trust fund for effective coordination. Future steps include initiating the GEF-PAS steering committee by mid-2009.
