New Micronesia Challenge Commitments Advance Ocean Protection in Pacific
September 10, 2013 By Schannel Van Dijken, for Conservation International
Last week I had the great pleasure and honour of attending the Pacific Islands Forum in Majuro in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. It’s always a great event. Together with CI’s Greg Stone and Ginny Farmer, I met with old conservation and Pacific friends, made new ones and laughed about how we in the Pacific do things. It was a long week, with long hours and hard work for everyone, but in the end these gatherings are always productive.
