AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoClimate Migration: More than 80% of Tuvalu’s population (8,750 registrations, about 82% of 10,643 people) entered Australia’s world-first climate visa ballot, with only 280 visas offered this programme year—raising urgent questions for families as sea levels threaten the atolls. Legal Climate Accountability: The figures were released ahead of a major International Court of Justice decision on countries’ duties to prevent climate change and whether polluters should pay. Maritime Safety: Life Flight (Fiji) is urging wider use of emergency locator beacons (EPIRBs/PLBs) to cut search times and improve rescue outcomes, citing Tuvalu and Kiribati as examples. Tuvalu Enforcement & Illegal Fishing: Tuvalu police tracked a Chinese longliner using spoofed AIS signals, found expired fishing authorisation and shark carcasses, and arrested the captain and crew. Regional Waste Action: Tuvalu is among nine Pacific countries backing SWAP2 to improve waste management and reduce pollution, including beach surveys and marine-litter audits.
