dc.descriptionThese are the proceedings from the workshop on Priority adaptations to climate change for Pacific fisheries and aquaculture: Reducing risks and capitalizing on opportunities, held in Noumea, New Caledonia, from 5 to 8 June, 2012, organized by the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC) in collaboration with the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department. The meeting brought together representatives from fisheries, climate change and disaster risk management from across the Pacific Island countr ies and territories (PICTs) to discuss the implications of climate change for Pacific fisheries and aquaculture and on priority adaptations for economic development and government revenue, food security and sustainable livelihoods for Melanesian, Micronesian and Polynesian nations. The adaptations identified reflect the different fisheries participation rates and importance of fish to economic development and as a source of local food and income in these different regions. Ultimately, the Worksh op discussions recommended immediate action by all PICTs to manage fisheries resources sustainably now and into the future, and establish systems to minimize impacts of various drivers facing the sector now and from future climate change, and capitalize on opportunities. Cooperation between PICTs and partnerships between governments, regional and international organisations and communities were highlighted as important ways to implement effective adaptation.
