FSPI 2006 ANNUAL REPORT

------------------

 
FSPI is a network of South Pacific island non-governmental organisations  and overseas affiliates working in partnership across the South Pacific. The main function of the FSPI Secretariat is to coordinate the planning and design of regional development projects, based on the needs identified by the members and their constituencies.

 

       
The Governance Programme evolved from efforts to address the critical governance issues facing the Pacific community and promote the development of good governance from community level in the region The Communities and Coasts Programme works towards self reliant coastal communities securing their quality of life through sustainable and integrated resource management The Health Programme includes The Masculinity, Mental Health, and Violence project (MMHV) which addresses the growing numbers of out-of-school and unemployed youth, a severe shortage of employment opportunities, and the related increase of mental health problems, violence and crime. The Disaster Preparedness programme is a new program to assist countries in their preparation for national emergencies, by examining existing response procedures, and implementing processes that will enhance risk reduction and crisis management capabilities.
     
     

The Programme will look at ways to support innovative work (e.g. niche product development and new crop development:  coconut oil, market flowers, off-season pineapple etc) where knowledge and infrastructure already exist in communities.
