Sea Safety: Fiji’s Life Flight Trust is urging wider use of emergency locator beacons (EPIRBs/PLBs) to cut search times and improve survival chances in remote waters, citing recent rescues and pointing to Tuvalu and Kiribati as examples. Policy for Fair Transitions: UNEP says countries are turning “just transition” pledges into laws and court decisions, stressing fair, rights-based climate action for workers and affected communities. Travel Access (Indirect Wellness): Pakistan’s passport access is shifting as visa-free, VOA, ETA and e-visa options expand or change, affecting planning for health travel and family visits.
