Kiribati Fisheries Joins Pacific Fusion Center Training for the First Time

This is the first time Kiribati Fisheries attended the training at the Pacific Fusion Center in Port Villa, Vanuatu from 20/01/2025 to 30/04/2025. The Pacific Fusion delivers training and strategic analysis against security priorities identified by Pacific Island Forum Leaders in the 2018 Boe Declaration on Regional Security. This supports strengthening the strategic assessments for better decision-making addressing national security impacts on regional security: Human Security, Environmental and Resource Security, Climate Change Security and Cybersecurity. The PFC training/secondment program can play a crucial role in enhancing Kiribati's ability to manage its fisheries sustainably and secure its marine resources. This will not only ensure the long-term viability of its fisheries resources but also contribute to economic stability, food security, and sustainable development. By building capacity in areas like border security, intelligence-sharing, disaster response, and fisheries management, the program can help Kiribati navigate both local and global challenges effectively.
