#Kiribati is a Pacific Island State with permanent population estimated over 130,000. It comprises 32 atolls & one remote raised coral island, Banaba.
Kiribati’s highest point is 2 meters above sea level. Does this make Kiribati more prone to climate change caused disasters?
The European Union Ambassador to the Pacific @BPlinkertEU met with Minister for Education of Kiribati, Hon. Alexander Teabo today. They held a fruitful discussion on education, gender issues, oceans and other topics of common interest.
Gender equality is a core value of the #EU and a universally recognised human right. Today, @EUPasifika held a consultation with stakeholders on ways to improve gender mainstreaming and introducing work in promoting gender equality.
♀️ Today Spain took part in the #GenderEquality and Women's #Empowerment Consulation at @EUPasifika.
A good chance to learn from the experts and to improve our collective engagement for #Pacific women and girls.
In the Pacific, both Port-Vila in Vanuatu and Savusavu in Fiji have benefitted from this technical support. Don’t hesitate to apply if your city is looking for such a support in developing climate adaptation plan and projects.
#PacificPeoples | Creative & cultural industries have the potential to challenge gender inequalities & unequal power relations. They can also generate secure career pathways & jobs, while promoting social inclusion, cultural diversity, & human dev.
