It's a wrap... My first PHES with experienced and inspiring thought leaders. Grace's input reminded us why we do this work and she is right in asking all of us to walk the talk.

Grace spoke about the resilience of her people and how they have adapted to the changing impacts of #ClimateChange in Tuvalu over the years.
This week, Tuvalu as incoming Chair for the Pacific Heads of Education Systems (PHES) hosts the 25th consultation meeting of PHES bringing together senior-most officials of the ministries for education in 15 Pacific Small Island Developing Nations
