It's always a pleasure to work with the Pacific Islands Forum team!

We enjoying designing their Pacific Aid for Trade Strategy 2026–2030 (PAfTS)

It is available online: https://pacificecommerce.org/reports/pacific-aid-for-trade-strategy-2026-2030/

The Pacific Islands Forum is pleased to announce that the Pacific Aid for Trade Strategy 2026–2030 (PAfTS) is now available online: https://pacificecommerce.org/reports/pacific-aid-for-trade-strategy-2026-2030/

The PAfTS provides a regional framework to support Forum Member countries in building the capacity needed to benefit from global trade opportunities. It helps articulate what regionalism means in the context of trade development and guides the Secretariat’s technical assistance to Members.

Endorsed by Forum Trade Ministers in 2025, the Strategy builds on the previous PAfTS to ensure that key regional trade priorities are addressed, that regional initiatives are Forum Member-driven, and that donor and implementation partners coordinate effectively and avoid duplication.

The PAfTS 2026–2030 focuses on key intervention areas, including quality infrastructure, electronic commerce, trade facilitation, services, trade policies and trade agreements, comprehensive connectivity, and priority value chains such as kava and apiculture, with trade and environment integrated across these areas.

There's a word for what's happening to a lot of brands right now: BLANDING. It's the slow creep of sameness. Good enough has never been cheaper to produce. It's also never been easier to ignore.

Blanding is what happens when a brand prioritises inoffensiveness over identity. It's not a single bad decision. It's a series of reasonable-sounding ones that accumulate into something forgettable. Read this brilliant article to get a better understanding.

If you want to invest in a brand that actually works, and helps you stand out from the crowd of beige and cream AI, talk to us!

Why smart brands with real budgets keep ending up somewhere generic – and what it takes to build something people actually remember. Tags: Design
