It is a tool compromising of transparent procedures and processes to assist and guide decision makers in resolving public complaints/concerns pertaining to intervention/activities implemented under the GCF-UNEP Programme, Enhancing Climate Information and Knowledge Services for resilience in 5 Pacific countries (UNEP CIS-Pac5).
Objectives:
The impacts of human-induced environmental change that characterize the Anthropocene are not felt equally across the globe. In the tropics, the potential for the sudden collapse of ecosystems in response to multiple interacting pressures has been of increasing concern in ecological and conservation research. The tropical ecosystems of Papua New Guinea are areas of diverse rainforest flora and fauna, inhabited by human populations that are equally diverse, both culturally and linguistically.
