This policy applies requests for data held by a Ministry. The purpose of this policy is to:
• encourage the free exchange of data within a Ministry, with other government agencies within the country and with the public, as appropriate
• ensure that sensitive information (including commercially sensitive data) held by the Ministry is not compromised.
Memorandum of Understanding between two parties, for the exchange of data, related information and other services.
Memorandum of Understanding between SPREP and a Country, to facilitate the access to, and security of, all data entered into the national database.
At the end of a training, you can ask participants to fill in this Action Plan. The goal is to link learning to performance.
This excel file include four spreadsheets each representing a separate theme (EMG = Environmental Monitoring and Governance, IOE = Island and Ocean Ecosystems, CCR = Climate Change Resilience, WMPC = waste). Within each theme are the core national environment indicators (scrolling from left to right).
Most atoll ecosystems and a wide range of terrestrial and marine organisms, and genetic or cultivars varieties of
traditional food and other multi-purpose plants are declining in abundance and under threat of either “economic extinction” or extirpation and in need of some form of protection. The severity of the situation is greatest on those more urbanized atolls where both the biodiversity and the local knowledge of biodiversity are threatened.
*see R Thanman pdf report for more information*
Terrestrial and marine plants and animals that are rare, endangered or in short supply,
and in need of protection in the atolls of the Pacific Islands.
This is a template that can be used when creating a State of Environment report, and sections can be added or adapted to fit a country’s needs.
This new set of 60 indicator icons can be used in a State of Environment report to indicate the status of environmental issues and progress in a country.
SPREPs recommended template for individual indicators in national SoE reports. The full SoE template will be updated in the coming months.

Zip file containing shapefile and metadata for deepwater bioregions of the Southwest Pacific Ocean. Thirty, mainly physical, environmental variables were assessed to be adequately comprehensive and reliable to be included in the analysis. These data were allocated to over 140,000 grid cells of 20x20 km across the Southwest Pacific. K-means and then hierarchical cluster analyses were then conducted to identify groups of analytical units that contained similar environmental conditions.
