MOU Coastal fisheries management

Australia, Vanuatu fight effects of climate change together

The signing took place during Ambassador Suckling’s two-day visit to Port Vila to work with the Vanuatu Government to address the effects of climate change in the Pacific region.

The Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR) project, implemented by the University of Wollongong’s Australian National Centre for Ocean Research and Security (ANCORS), will combine world-class research with local knowledge to ensure coastal fisheries will continue to thrive despite a changing climate and increasing pressure from population growth.
