Forum Ministers and Heads of Delegation considered progress on strengthening climate resilience, empowering women, educating more students, and preparing the Blue Pacific to leverage opportunities in the digital economy. Ministers deliberated on climate finance and resilience issues noting that while COVID-19 presents an immediate challenge to the region, climate change creates an existential threat for the Pacific that cannot be addressed without an unwavering global commitment to implement obligations arising from the Paris Agreement.
