LocationsThe Pacific Pathway to COP31
UNDP's Partnership with Pacific Island Countries
Bringing the world to the Pacific
Pacific Island Countries have long been at the forefront of global climate leadership, helping shape international ambition while advancing practical solutions in renewable energy, resilience, ocean stewardship and climate finance.
In October, climate negotiators and leaders met in the Pacific ahead of the UN Climate Change Conference - COP31. In Nadi and Funafuti they did not only hear about climate change. They saw how Pacific countries are already responding to it.
The Pacific comes to Antalya with ambition, ideas and solutions that work. Finance has been committed and policies are in place. What is missing is the system that turns commitments into finance countries can reach, projects investors can back, and results communities can feel. The climate challenge has become a delivery challenge.
