Pacific Island Women play an important role in global climate change negotiations and a workshop at the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat this week was aimed at consolidating their skills.

Participants from 9 island nations attended, including Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati, Nauru, Papua New Guinea, Republic of Marshall Islands, Samoa, Tonga and Tuvalu. They focused on issues that included how small island states can utilise the United Nations system, the science of climate change itself, pacific gender and social issues, and the principles of effective negotiation.
