At the heart of this report lies a fundamental fact: better decisions rely on better information. While the Pacific has made notable progress in environmental monitoring, our efforts remain frequently uneven and resource intensive. In some instances, indicator trends are still being evaluated using nearly the same data available five years ago. Fragmented approaches cannot match the scale or urgency of our current challenges, therefore, greater coordination is needed on systems for comparable data collection, management, exchange, and application—harnessing efficiencies that reduce reporting burdens while bolstering national ownership
and regional coherence.Call Number: [EL]ISBN/ISSN: 978-982-05-1549-2,978-982-04-1550-8
