Congratulations to Palau as the new PSIDS chair and extend our appreciation to Samoa for its leadership over the group. Nauru stands in solidarity with both your leadership #PalauPSIDSchair #SamoaAOSISchair

AOSIS Filimone Tuivanualevu from #Fiji and K A B W E E A • I from #Kiribati join the Indonesia-Pacific Forum for Development conference.

I have seen PSIDS crew work brutal hours to protect small island interests at the UN. Is it enough?No.

But we wouldn’t have had SDG13 & 14 & CC in 2030 Agenda without Pac delegations incl Fiji (Govt & CSOs). Or 1.5 + Loss & Damage in #ParisAgreement . Maybe why Fiji is pissed.

Samoa has succeeded Fiji in chairing the Pacific Small Islands Developing States (PSIDS) international grouping at the United Nations in New York.

So, #LossAndDamage is on the #COP27 agenda!
We thank friends & allies for making this happen.
It is because we, the people, demanded this & kept the pressure on decision-makers to listen to voices from the ground, from communities impacted by floods, cyclones & heatwaves🧵1/n

Wonderful to meet with Pacific Islands Students Fighting Climate Change and World's Youth for Climate Justice reps at COP26 to talk about youth-led climate Justice initiatives. Inspiring work and great to see today’s youth taking the lead with such passion #bluepacific #psids #climateaction #bbnj

Good to meet #PSIDS delegates at 1st Global Planning Meeting for UN Decade of #Ocean Science - go to SDG14a on SIDS.

PSIDS statement delivered by Samoa emphasizing the need for the special circumstances of SIDS to be reflected throughout the BBNJ Agreement.

All the best #Samoa as new chair of #PSIDS in New York, taking over the helm from #Fiji Satyendra Prasad … Good to see Ambassador Luteru. #Pacific #SIDS

#Nauru 🇳🇷 First Sec Kane Amandus intervenes on behalf of PSIDS on Cross Cutting Issues at #BBNJ #IGC4

one of my favorite things about being among the #BBNJ community is being able to use the following acronyms freely: IGC, EIA, ABMT, MGR, ABS, CHM, CBTMT, ILBI, IFB, PSIDS, CLAM, IA, WG.

People's movements have done this, w #SIDS , #PSIDS AOSIS #G77 and #China ...!

I’m very impressed with the good ideas coming from regional groups such as PSIDS #HighSeasTreaty #BBNJ

Identify who is on your network. Become a threat hunting pro with this guide.

“UNCLOS doesn’t guarantee rights over our ocean space if some the basepoints defining our EEZ are lost to sea level rise.” Andrick Lal of Pacific Community notes the urgency for PSIDS to finalize their #maritimeboundaries & fight for our #BluePacificContinent at OPOC #POA2019

It’s a beautiful day to bring home a strong #BBNJ treaty to protect the #HighSeas . And wonderful to have a PSIDS rep, Mr. Martin Zvachula, chairing our opening plenary of this final morning of #IGC5 . Finish line is in sight! 🌊🌊🌊

Marking the occasion of the Pacific Small Island Developing States (PSIDS) leadership baton change from Fiji to Samoa at the United Nations in New York.

Thank you Peter Thomson for the stimulating discussions on #oceanscience with our participants from the #PSIDS . We hope to see you in Noumea 23-25 July for the Pacific #OceanDecade meeting co-hosted by UNESCO Ocean and Pacific Community

'Pacific Islanders are ocean people & custodians of the Pacific Ocean..this is not just for the benefit of ourselves, but also for the intl community, which relies on the Pacific region for the majority of the global seafood trade'- Palau, chair of PSIDS #INC2 #PlasticsTreaty

1/ Call from the Pacific for #LossAndDamage finance facility. First our new PSIDS coordinator Kathy Jetn̄il-Kijiner at the opening of the Glasgow Dialogue: “The Pacific demands that one of the outcomes of this dialogue is the establishment of a Finance Facility for #LossAndDamage ”.

Finishing the year on a high note engaging as PSIDS on our national priorities and areas for regional development.

Throwback to when Satyendra Prasad hosted a dinner to welcome me to the Pacific family of Ambassadors at the United Nations.
Appreciate the kind gesture and I look forward to working closely with you all!
