Gender and the Pacific Adaptation to Climate Change (PACC) programme: Assessment and Action Plan. Technical Report 3

The Pacific Adaptation to Climate Change (PACC) programme is the largest climate change adaptation initiative in the Pacific region, with activities in 14 countries and territories. PACC has three main areas of activity: practical demonstrations of adaptation measures; driving the mainstreaming of climate risks into national development planning and activities; and sharing knowledge in order to build adaptive capacity. The programme focuses on three key climate-sensitive development sectors: coastal zone management, food security and food production, and water resources management. The PACC programme began in 2009 and is scheduled to end in December 2014.
