Day 2 at Pre-COP31: Bridging Frontline Realities, Climate Finance & Innovation in the Pacific 🇫🇯🇵🇬🇻🇺🇼🇸

​Day 2 in Nadi reinforced a critical truth: climate resilience cannot be built in silos. From frontline health services and local disaster planning to innovative blended finance, discussions emphasized aligning funding mechanisms with ground-level operational needs.

​Key takeaways from today's sessions and bilateral meetings:
​1️⃣ Beyond Hard Infrastructure to Service Delivery - a major thread was the Climate-Health Nexus:
🌏​ Frontline Realities: Morning discussions with a medical doctor from Nadi Hospital highlighted how healthcare workers in western Fiji are eager to drive climate action but face information gaps and limited channels to engage.
🌏​ Funding "Softer" Services: The Financing for Resilient Pacific Communities session echoed this: climate finance heavily favors hard infrastructure while neglecting operational service delivery like supporting nurses, health workers, and community care networks.
​
​2️⃣ Cross-Sectoral Solutions: Tele-Health for Rural Resilience. A ​meeting with the Board Chair of the Telecommunications Authority of Fiji brought out the idea of leveraging telecom partnerships for tele-health consultations in rural communities - a practical solution to maintain healthcare access during climate disruptions. How can collaborations with telecommunications experts facilitate this in Fiji needs further indepth exploration.

​3️⃣ Science, Local Data & Youth Leadership. The Pacific led Science, Data and Youth for Climate Action session underscored grounding action in evidence, referencing the latest UNEP 1.5°C Overshoot Report.

🌏 ​Data-Driven Planning: Bilateral talks with Vanuatu Government representative stressed the need for localized flood data in town planning and better joint disaster coordination.
🌏​ Youth Advocacy: Pacific youth need sustained scientific backing to connect education with high-level policy advocacy.

​4️⃣ Unlocking Innovative & Blended Finance.
​Grants alone won't close the Pacific's climate finance gap. The Innovative Finance for Pacific Climate Action session brought together UNDP, Fiji Development Bank, SPC, and the Solomon Islands National Provident Fund to discuss blended finance to unlock investment for vulnerable sectors.

🌺 Day 1 Recap from Pacific Pre-COP31 in Nadi, Fiji! 🇫🇯🌊 ​

Sustainable Future Consultancy is participating in the Vale ni Vanua – Knowledge Exchange alongside Pre-COP31, ensuring Pacific solutions, community voices, and practical policy actions remain at the center of global climate discussions!

​Here is a snapshot of the key sessions we attended on Day 1:

​📍 Opening of the Vale ni Vanua Knowledge Exchange: Grounding our discussions in Pacific culture, traditional knowledge, and regional leadership.

📍 ICJ Advisory Opinion & Health: Exploring how international legal avenues can safeguard health rights, hold polluters accountable, and save lives on the frontlines of climate change.

📍 Birthright! Protecting Pregnant Women from Global Heating: Raising an urgent call to action to protect maternal health and pregnant women from rising global temperatures and extreme heat events.

📍 Loss & Damage – Policy to Implementation: Unpacking how Pacific countries can unlock climate finance and bridge the gap between Loss and Damage policy and tangible, on-ground community programs.

We received a comprehensive brief from the Fiji Government's Ministry of Environment and Climate Change on the upcoming Pacific-led Pre-COP31 preparations and agenda.

Key takeaways from the briefing:
🌏 Fiji is rallying all sectors - private sector, civil society, academia, youth, and communities - to collaborate ahead of the event this October.

🌏 4 Key Climate Priorities: The agenda focuses on keeping the 1.5°C goal within reach, improving access to climate finance, recognizing the ocean's role in climate action, and amplifying Pacific leadership globally.

🌏 Finding a space to talk about climate and health was raised by a couple of people. Few organisations expressed willingness to explore joint events on this topic for PreCOP31.

🌏 There will be a Pacific Climate Week (PCW), the week prior to PreCOP31 in Nadi 🇫🇯 from 28 Sept - 02 Oct. But the activities during PCW won't necessarily directly feed into PreCOP31.

🌏 Registrations for PreCOP31 will open soon and will be done via an online portal. Similarly, the portal to submit event expressions of interests will be announced soon on the Ministry's website.

Last week we attended the Quarter 2 Meeting of the Technical Working Group on Human Mobility. During the meeting, SFC Director, Krishneil Narayan, shared about the need for more health impact focus as we look at climate-induced displacement and human mobility in the region.

Any partners willing to do more in the and nexus of climate and Loss & Damage in the Pacific region are most welcome to reach out to us at SFC.

Update from Director Krishneil Narayan:
"I had the pleasure of speaking today at the inaugural Climate Catalytic Fund (CCF) Symposium in Suva, convened by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and Fiji’s Ministry of Environment and Climate Change.

​Representing Sustainable Future Consultancy, it was a significant moment to see the Risk Index for Climate Displacement (RICD)—which we are proud to be a co-design partner for—being used to drive practical investment in the provinces of Ba and Macuata.

​In my intervention, I shared several critical shifts needed for the CCF’s success:
➡️ ​“Smarter” Money vs. More Money: I highlighted that the provinces don't just need an influx of capital; they need investment that is strategically directed toward Catchment-Wide solutions rather than isolated projects.

➡️ ​Closing the Inclusion Gap: I noted that while the focus on iTaukei communities is essential, the views of Indo-Fijians (freehold landowners, farmers, and native lease holders) are often missing from climate interventions. We must include these perspectives to ensure comprehensive land stewardship.

➡️ ​The Private Sector Bridge: I addressed the current gap in private sector engagement and suggested concrete ways to better involve local businessesto ensure economic resilience.

➡️ ​Long-term Stewardship: I emphasized the indispensable roles of women, children, and youth as the primary stewards of nature-based solutions.

​The Climate Catalytic Fund is a new blended finance mechanism designed to translate climate risk data into locally led, practical action for communities facing climate displacement.

It was an honor to contribute the perspective of Sustainable Future Consultancy to this dialogue. We remain committed to ensuring that data-driven tools lead to equitable, community-centered outcomes."

Last week in Suva, Fiji, Mr. Krishneil Narayan, Director and Principal Consultant of Sustainable Future Consultancy (SFC), participated in a regional consultation on the Draft Implementation Plan for the Pacific Regional Framework on Climate Mobility (PRFCM). He had the opportunity to contribute to the discussions on collaborative regional initiatives to address climate mobility in the Pacific. Mr. Narayan is the lead consultant for SFC on this crucial issue.

The two-day gathering aimed to bring together government officials, civil society representatives, CROP agencies, and development partners across the Pacific region to develop solutions for climate-induced mobility, focusing on rights-based and people-centred approaches.

The PRFCM, endorsed by Pacific leaders in 2023, represents a significant and unprecedented commitment to ensuring options, agency, and dignity for Pacific peoples facing the impacts of climate change.

This initiative is being advanced through the Pacific Climate Change Migration and Human Security (PCCM-HS) Programme, led by IOM - UN Migration, in partnership with PIFS, UNESCAP, UNHCHR, and ILO. It is funded by the New Zealand government and guided by a Joint Working Group co-chaired by Fiji and Tuvalu.

The insights and outcomes from this consultation will shape the final Implementation Plan, which will be presented to the Pacific Islands Forum FOC Sub-Committee on Regional Security in July 2025.

🌍 Honored to Speak at Fiji’s 1st Ministerial Forum on Gender Equality and Empowerment of All Women and Girls 🌍

At the invitation of Fiji's Minister of Women, I had the opportunity to join a panel on climate change. I shared insights on integrating gender and climate impacts beyond policy launches, ensuring these considerations permeate across all sectors. Additionally, I outlined critical gaps that need addressing to achieve gender and climate resilience. Happy to contribute through my work as part of Sustainable Future Consultancy.

This session was part of the inaugural Ministerial Forum on Gender Equality and Empowerment of All Women and Girls, organized by the Fiji Government's Ministry of Women on September 26, 2024.
