AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoWomen & Water Security: Pacific advocates say women are being shut out of water decisions, driving wider gender harms from climate change; a Devpolicy Blog study (“Rising Tides, Rising Voices”) found exclusion from decision-making was the top urgent issue (53%) and the most neglected in global debates (79%), with women holding household water knowledge but missing community and subnational meetings. Tuvalu at UNGA: Tuvalu PM Feleti Teo urged urgent action on sea-level rise and welcomed a UN Political Declaration that affirms continuity of statehood and permanent maritime boundaries under UNCLOS—key for climate-vulnerable nations facing territorial loss.

Climate Loss & Damage Reporting: Pacific editors pledged stronger coverage of climate loss and damage in Savusavu, calling for more attention to cultural and social harms, not just financial impacts. India–Pacific Health & Climate Cooperation: On UNGA sidelines, FIPIC foreign ministers (including Tuvalu’s health minister) discussed renewable energy, climate action, disaster resilience, education, healthcare, and capacity building.
