`NOW I WANT TO DISCUSS OCEAN- 3 `BASED CLIMATE ST. LOUISES. 3 `WE TEND TO FOCUS MAINLY ON 3 `MITIGATION EFFORTS, HOWEVER, WE 3 `MUST NOT FORGET ADAPTATION TO 3 `THE CLIMATE CHANGES THAT ARE 3 `ALREADY TAKING PLACE WHERE THE 3 `MOST VULNERABLE ARE SUFFERING 3 `THE MOST, WHERE SMALL ISLAND 3 `STATES ARE VICTIMS OF CLIMATE 3 `CHANGE AND WHERE THESE STATES 3 `MUST ADAPT TO THE CHANGES, AND 3 `THIS IS COSTLY. 3 `NORWAY WILL INCREASE ITS FOCUS 3 `ON ADAPTATION IN ITS POLICY. 3

`FINALLY, ON CONCRETE OCEAN 3 `COMMITMENTS, NORWAY HAS ALREADY 3 `PROVIDED A COMPREHENSIVE LIST 3 `YOU JUST MENTIONED. `FIRST, WE WILL CONTINUE OUR `SUPPORT TO THE WORLD BANK'S `FUND. 3 `AT COP-27, WE ANNOUNCED ANOTHER 3 `NORWEGIAN CONTRIBUTION TO THE 3 `FUND OF $9 MILLION. `SECOND, WE

WILL INCREASE OUR `SUPPORT OF SUSTAINABLE 3 `DEVELOPMENT TO FOOD IN OTHER 3 `COUNTRIES WITH AND IN OUR 3 `BILATERAL PROGRAMS. `THE OCEAN IS WHERE MANY OF OUR `GLOBAL CHALLENGES MEET. 3 `THE OCEAN HOLDS ONE OF THE KEYS 3 `TO ENDING HUNGER AND POVERTY, 3 `AND IN TERMS OF CLIMATE CHANGE, 3 `THE OCEAN IS BOTH VICTIM AND 3 `SOLUTION. `A FOUND BLUE ECONOMY CAN BOTH `CHANGE HUMAN HEALTH AND ENSURE `THE HEALTH OF OUR PLANET. `THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION. 3 `[ APPLAUSE ] 3 THANK YOU VERY MUCH, 3 `AMBASSADOR JOHANSSON WITH 3 `SHARING NORWAY'S OCEAN 3 `LEADERSHIP AND EXPERIENCING IT. 3

`AND NOW WE WILL HEAR FROM THE 3 `UNITED KINGDOM. `AMBASSADOR? 3 THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON. 3 `AGAIN, I AM DELIGHTED TO 3 `HERE IN PARTICULAR, I WOULD 3 `SAY, GIVEN THE INCREDIBLE 3 `LEADERSHIP WHICH WE SAW FROM 3 `ALL OF OUR PACIFIC PARTNERS AT 3 `COP THE IN GLASGOW AND I THINK 3 `THAT LEADERSHIP DELIVERED BOTH 3 `ON THE OCEAN'S AGENDA AND 3 `CLIMATE CHANGE MORE WIDELY. 3 `SO I'LL SPEAK BRIEFLY THIS' 3 `AFTERNOON, A LITTLE BIT ABOUT 3 `THE RESULTS OF GLASGOW AND 3 `WHERE WE ARE THROUGH AND WHERE 3 `WE NEED TO GO NEXT. `SO I'D LIKE TO START WITH

OUR `WIDER ACHIEVEMENTS ON CLIMATE `CHANGE BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT `CLIMATE CHANGE IS THREATENING `OCEAN ENVIRONMENT AT 3 `UNPRECEDENTED RATES, AND 3 `KNOW ALSO THAT CRY MAT ACTION 3 `IS OCEAN'S ACTION. `COP-26 CONCLUDED WITH AGREEMENT `ON THE HISTORIC GLASS GOGH `CLIMATE PACT, WHICH MARKED A `REAL STEP CHANGE IN TERMS OF `AMBITION, WHETHER ON MITT `CELEBRATION, ON ADAPTATION, OR `ON FINANCE. 3 `AND, OF COURSE, THERE IS 3 `MASSIVE AMOUNT STILL TO DO, BUT 3 `WE DO HAVE MANAGED TO KEEP THE 3 `1. 5-DEGREE CREE SEE YOUS GOAL 3

`AGREED TO IN PARIS IN REACH 3 `AND, THEREFORE, WE HAVE ALSO 3 `MANAGED TO KEEP OUR GOAL 3 `PROTECTING AND RESTORING OCEAN 3 `HEALTH AND RESILIENCE ALSO 3 `WITHIN REACH. `NOW, TURNING TO THE SPECIFIC `OUTCOMES ON THE OCEAN AT 3 `GLASGOW, I THINK WE MANAGED TO 3 `SEE A REAL SUCCESS STORY 3 `THIS FIELD. `WE WERE DETERMINED TO PLACE `NATURE AT THE HEART OF OUR `PRESIDENCY, SO WE WERE `DELIGHTED THAT GLASGOW GAVE A 3 `MORE PROMINENT ROLE IN THE 3 `OCEAN, INCLUDING THROUGH THE 3 `ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ANNUAL 3 `CLIMATE DIALOGUE. `THAT, IN TURN, GIVES US THE `OPPORTUNITY TO PERMANENTLY `EMBED THE OCEAN'S AGENDA WITHIN `OUR WIDER GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE `RESPONSE, WHETHER IN TERMS OF `MITIGATION AND ANCHORING THE `OCEANS WITHIN BROADER NATIONAL `INDIOCESE, AND ALSO BY RAISING 3 `AWARENESS OF GLOBAL COASTAL 3 `COMMUNITIES, OF THE MARINE 3 `ENVIRONMENT WITHIN GLOBAL 3 `EFFORTS ONADAPTATION AND 3 `RESILIENCE AND ALSO CRUCIALLY 3 `IN ENSURING THE INTERNATIONAL 3 `CLIMATE FINANCE ALSO TO THE 3 `OCEAN'S AGENDA AND FLOWS ALSO 3 `TO THE RISING SCIENTIFIC 3 `EXPERTISE WHICH IS NEEDED 3 `FIND THE SOLUTIONS. `THE FIRST ANNUAL DIALOGUE AS `MANY OF YOU KNOW IS IN JUNE AND `WE ARE DETERMINED THAT THAT 3 `SHOULD SET A STRONG PRECEDENT 3 `TO FUTURE SUCH EVENTS SO 3 `WILL BE ENCOURAGING ALL PARTIES 3 `AND NON-PARTIES TO ATTEND AND 3 `SHAPE THAT REALLY IMPORTANT 3 `CONVERSATION. `IF I MAY TURN TO A SPECIFIC `SECTOR, COP-THE WAS 3 `PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR THE 3 `SHIPPING SECTOR, 80% OF 3 `INTERNATIONAL TRADE IS COVERED 3 `AND CARRIED BY SEA. `BUT AS WE ALSO HEARD THIS

`MORNING, THE SHIPPING SECTOR `ALONE CONTRIBUTES TO 3% OF `GLOBAL GREENHOUSE GAS 3 `EMISSIONS, ABOUT THE EQUIVALENT 3 `AMOUNT OF GERMANY OR OF JAPAN. 3 `CLEARLY THAT CAN'T CONTINUE. 3 `WE HAVE TO MOVE TOGETHER 3 `SWIFTLY TO A MUCH MORE 3 `SUSTAINABLE GLOBAL SHIPPING 3 `SECTOR. `THE INTERNATIONAL MARITIME `ORGANIZATION OR I. M.O. , HAS `HAPPILY STARTED ACTION IN THIS `FIELD IN 2018. 3

`IT SET OUT ITS INITIAL G. H. G. 3 `STRATEGY COMMITTING TO A 3 `REDUCTION IN H GREENHOUSE GAS 3 `EMISSIONS OF AT LEAST 50% 3 `2050, BUT WE KNOW THAT ISN'T 3 `ENOUGH. `WE HAVE TO STEP UP OUR ACTIONS `WORKING TOGETHER WITH GREAT `STATES AND THE SHIPPING SECTOR `ALONG THREE KEY POINTS.

`FIRST OF ALL, WE NEED TO `INCREASE OUR AMBITION ON THE I. `M.O. 3 `AGENDA, ADOPTING A TARGET 3 `COMPLETELY PHASE OUT GREENHOUSE 3 `GAS EMISSIONS FROM SHIPPING BY 3 `2050. `AND SECONDLY, WE NEED TO `ACCELERATE THE DECARBON ZAGS `EFFORTS ALREADY HAPPENING `WITHIN THE SECTOR, CLOSING THE `PRICE GAP BETWEEN TRADITIONAL `AND ALTERNATIVE MARITIME FUELS `AND AGREEING AMBITION MID-TERM `TARGETS, INCLUDING POTENTIALLY `MARKET-BASED MEASURES. `AND FINALLY, NATIONAL AND `SPEAKER NATIONAL ACTION WILL BE `KEY. 3

`AND THAT TAKES ME TO THE 3 `DECLARATION FOR GREEN SHIPPING 3 `CORRIDORS, WHICH WAS AEED 3 `GLASGOW. `WE ESTABLISHING GREEN 3 `CORRIDORS, WE CAN SPEED UP AND 3 `SCALE UP ZERO EMISSION SUPPLY 3 `CHAINS. 3 `WE CAN TAX THE PERFORMANCE IN 3 `REAL-LIFE SITUATIONS. 3 `AND WE CAN PERHAPS MOST 3 `IMPORTANTLY SHOW THE WORLD THAT 3 `ZERO EMISSION SHIPPING IS NOT 3 `JUST FEASIBLE BUT IT IS NOW 3 `WITHIN REACH. `22 GOVERNMENTS FROM

ACROSS THE `GLOBE HAVE ALREADY SIGNED UP TO `MAKE CORRIDOR AS REALITY, AND `I'M DELIGHTED THAT OUR PARTNERS `IN SINGAPORE HAVE RECENTLY `JOINED UP GALVANIZING GLOBAL `EFFORTS, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE `YOU ALL TO JOIN US IN THE `PRIORITIES TO BUILD ABOUT ZERO `E MISSION SHIPPING. 3 `FINALLY, AND I KNOW I'M RUNNING 3 `OUT OF TIME, WE WOULD LIKE TO 3 `STRESS THAT COP 26 AND CLIMATE 3 `ACTION IS ONLY PART OF THE 3 `GLOBAL EFFORTS TOWARDS 3 `SUSTAINABLE BLUE ECONOMIES. 3 `WE ALSO NEED TO ENSURE STRONG 3 `OUTCOMES ON THE CONVENTIONAL 3 `AND BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY AND ON 3 `NEGOTIATIONS AND AREAS BEYOND 3 `NATIONAL COMPETENT, ENSURING 3 `THAT WE PROTECT AT LEAST 0% OF 3 `THE WORLD'S OCEANS BY 2030 3 `BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT BY 3 `PROTECTING THE OCEANS, WE CAN 3 `ALSO TACKLE BIODIVERSITY AND 3 `THE CLIMATE CRISES TOGETHER. 3 `WE MUST INCREASE FINANCE AND 3 `DELIVER TRANSFORMATIONAL OCEAN 3 `SCIENCE TAKING ADVANTAGE 3 `THIS DECADE'S UN DECADE 3 `OCEAN SCIENCE FOR SUSTAINABLE 3 `DEVELOPMENT. `WE THROUGH HAVE AN 3 `UNPRECEDENTED CHANCE TO DELIVER 3 `ON THE INCREASED AMBITION SET 3 `OUT ON GLASGOW, SO I WOULD FIN 3 `SH BY ASKING FOR ALL OF YOUR 3 `SUPPORT IN HELPING TRANSFORM 3 `THAT AMBITION INTO ACTION. 3

`THANK YOU VERY MUCH . THANK YOU. 3 `AND YOU WE WELCOME THE 3 `EXPERTISE. SO THANK YOU. 3 `THANK YOU VERY MUCH. `I AM VERY PLEASED AND HONORED `TO BE WITH YOU TODAY AND BRING 3 `THE EXPERIENCE OF THE AGENCY. `I HAVE TO SAY FOR ME IN WORKING 3 `WITH THE ISLANDS, PERHAPS SOME 3 `OF YOU WILL REMEMBER I WAS 3 `WORKING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, TO 3 `BE ABLE THE PACIFIC AS IN THE 3 `CARIBBEAN, AND I ALSO THINK WE 3 `MADE SOME WORK ON THE MARITIME `HERE IN PALOU. 3 `BUT THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE I 3 `THINK THEY'RE MAKING FEAR THAT 3 `THE OLD SYSTEM, BASED 3 `CENTRALIZED SYSTEM, IS NOT ANY 3 `MORE RELIABLE. `IT IS NOT JUST A QUESTION

OF `FIGHTING CLIMATE CHANGE. `THE QUESTION IS IT IS NOT `ANYMORE A TOOL FOR DEVELOPMENT. `AND MORE WE UNDERSTOOD OUR `CENTRALIZED SYSTEM IS WHAT IS `THE COUNTRY TO ENSURE THE 3 `COUNTRY INDEPENDENCE AND 3 `FREEDOM. 3 `SO THIS IS THE DAY THAT WE HAVE 3 `TO KEY UNDERSTAND WHERE 3 `STAND. 3 `AND WE HAVE ESSENTIALLY 3 `PUBLISHED OUR WORLD ENERGY 3 `2022, AND WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO 3 `PRESENT, IN SOME WAY MESSAGES. 3 `WE FELT WE HAVE THE MESSAGES. 3

`THE MESSAGE WAS AND IS THAT THE 3 `1. 5 SELL SEE YOUS GOAL 3 `VANISHING SOON, EVEN TO TWO 3 `DEGREES IF WE DON'T REALLY 3 `CHANGE DRAMATICALLY THE WAY WE 3 `DO THINGS. `THIS MEANS HOW TO PUT 3 `RENEWABLES IN PLACE. `THIS MEANS THAT THREE TIMES `EACH YEAR THERE. 3 `AND JUST TO GIVE YOU AN 3 `EXAMPLE, BECAUSE WE ARE GOING 3 `THE RIGHT DIRECTION. `THE PROBLEM IS NOT THE `DIRECTION OF TRAVEL. 3

`THE PROBLEM IS THE SPEED, THE 3 `SCALE OF THIS STRUGGLE. 3 `AND ALSO LAST YEAR, WE JUST 3 `PUBLISHED THE DATA. 3 `WE HAVE ANOTHER RECORD FOR 3 `RENEWABLES. `IT IS FOLLOWING ANOTHER RECORD. 3 `BUT THE FACT IS WE ARE ALMOST `TWO YEARS AGO, WE NEEDED THREE `TIMES MORE. 3

`IN MEANS THE NEXT YEAR WE NEED 3 `TREE TIMES OF SOMETHING MORE. 3 `IF WE DON'T DO THAT, WE NEED 3 `FOUR TIMES. `SO THIS IS SIMPLY NOT FEASIBLE. 3

`SO THIS IS THE REASON THE NEXT 3 `YEARS WILL FILL OUT EXACTLY 3 `WHERE WE WILL BE WHEN WE LOOK 3 `AT THE PARIS AGREEMENT CLAUSE. 3 `BUT WHY RENEWABLES? 3 `RENEWABLES ARE THE MOST 3 `COMPETITIVE WAY TO USE 3 `ELECTRICITY. `THERE IS NO DOUBT. 3 `YOU CAN SEE, YOU CAN JUST READ, 3 `THERE IS NO REASON FOR ME 3 `COMMENT. 3 `ALL OF THE RENEWABLES, THE AREA 3 `BUT NOW THEY ARE MORE `COMPETITIVE. 3 `AND USING THE PLANET. `IT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE.

3 `AND THIS IS INCLUDING THIS PART 3 `OF THE WORLD. 3 `SO WHERE WE ARE, THE MAIN 3 `DRIVER WILL BE OUR SYSTEM, 3 `INCLUDING USE SECTOR. 3 `IT MEANS THAT WE HAVE TO 3 `THESE ARE THE TWO MAIN DRIVERS . `AND NOW WE SEE WITH HAVE TO GO 3 `TO MORE THAN 2/3 OF ENERGY, AND 3 `HOW FROM THE 25% OF TODAY 3 `HAVE TO GO TO THE 9% OF `RENEWABLES. 3 `CONCERNING, ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO 3 `THINK THAT IT COULD BE 3 `IMPORTANT FOR ALL OF THE 3 `ECONOMY. `WE CAN PUT THE OFF-SHORE, `AGRICULTURE, THE COOLING, YOU 3 `CAN MANAGE, SO IT IS IS A VERY 3 `IMPORTANT AREA AS THE WAY 3 `TECHNOLOGIES. `WE'RE NOT GOING TO SPEND MUCH `TIME. 3

`AND ONE IS THE PLATFORM. `IN COLLABORATION WITH THE FUND. 3 `AND NOW WE ARE 330 PARTNERS. 3

`ALL OF THE INTERNATIONAL 3 `SOLUTIONS ARE THERE. `T MAJOR COMPANIES. 3 `MAJOR DEVELOPMENT AGENCY. 3 `PEOPLE SAY THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH 3 `PROJECTS. `WE HAVE THE PROJECTS. 3 `WE ARE COLLECTING PROJECTS AND 3 `WE ARE ASSESSING. `WE ARE GOING TO ORGANIZE THE F.- `20 BACK-TO-BACK. AND 3 `I WISH HAVING SUCCESS FROM NOW, 3 `SO PLEASE, SEND THE PROJECTS. 3

`WE ALREADY HAVE MANY. `PLEASE SEND MORE THAN THIS. `GOVERNMENTS, NO MATTER. `AND THE LAST THING I WISH TO `SAY IS CONCERNING ANOTHER `FACILITY. 3

`MENT THE ARENA WE CAN MANAGE 3 `TOGETHER WE HAVE WITHOUT THE 3 `FUNDS FOR DEVELOPMENT. 3 `WE HAVE THE R FIRST FACILITY, 3 `THE DEVELOPMENTS COMMITTED, BUT 3 `WE ARE IN DEVELOPMENT FUNDS, 3 `WITH THE BANK. `AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS. 3 `SO, PLEASE, BELIEVE IN THE 3 `CAPACITY TO DO THINGS. 3 `WE HAVE COMMITTED TO REACH IN 3 `2030. 3 `PROMISES, BUT MUST BE `MAINTAINED. 3 `COMMITMENT TO CHANGE THE 3 `RESULT. `AND YOU CAN BE SURE THAT

WE CAN `WORK WITH YOU FOR THIS. `THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 3 `[ APPLAUSE ] 3 THANK YOU, VERY MUCH. `I WELCOME OUR GUEST FROM FIJI. 3 `THANK YOU . 3 DEAR HEAD OF STATES, PRIME 3 `MINISTERS, AMBASSADORS, 3 `EXCELLENCES, LADIES AND 3 `GENTLEMEN, A VERY GOOD 3 `AFTERNOON TO YOU ALL. `IT IS AN HONOR TO SIT

AMONG `FELLOW ADVOCATES IN THE FIGHT `TO SAVE OUR GLOBAL OCEAN HERE `IN PALOU. 3 `ALL OF YOU UNDERSTAND THE 3 `ENORMOUS SCALE OF THE TASK 3 `BEFORE US, TO TURN OUR HOPE 3 `FORCE OCEAN INTO A JOINT 3 `MISSION, THE AMBITION WITH 3 `CONCERTED EFFORT IN THE BLUE 3 `PACIFIC. `FIJI'S INTERNATIONAL 3 `RELATIONSHIP WITH THE OCEAN IS 3 `UNDERSTOOD BY ALL. 3 `MENT THE ISLAND NATIONS IN MORE 3 `WAYS THAT MATTER MOST, OUR 3 `BEACHES, REEFS AND FORESTS ARE 3 `NOT JUST HALLMARK0S THE FIJIAN 3 `WAY OF LIFE, THEY ARE PART OF 3 `OUR CULTURE. `THEY PROVIDE OUR LIVELIHOODS `AND PROTECT US, OUR HEALTH AND `WELL BEING OF OUR OCEANS AND 3 `THESTATE OF OUR CLIMATE AND OUR 3 `INTERCONNECTED SYSTEM. 3 `IT IS OUR FATE THAT DEPEND ONLY 3 `ON THE ACTIONS THAT WE TAKE 3 `HERE IN THE PACIFIC, OUR FUTURE 3 `WILL BE ASSURED BECAUSE WE WILL 3 `TAKE WHATEVER ACTIONS WE MUST 3 `TAKE. 3

`INNOVATE IN EVERY WAY WE CAN, 3 `AND MAKE ANY SACRIFICE THAT 3 `MAKE TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE 3 `OUR OCEAN. `BUT WE ARE NOT ONLY THE ONES `WHO HOLD THE FUTURE OF THE `OCEAN IN OUR HANDS. 3 `THE REST OF THE WORLD MUST ALSO 3 `DO ITS PART, AND THAT IS THE 3 `GREAT THAT BROUGHT US HERE TO 3 `PALOU. `AND AS SPECIFIC LEADERS, OUR `TASK THIS WEEK IS TO LEAD, TO `BE A BEACON OF BLUE LEADERSHIP `THAT INSPIRES THE WORLD TO TURN `AWAY FROM THE MODEL OF `DEVELOPMENTS THAT HARMS OUR `OCEAN AND THREATENS TO STRIP `THEM OF THEIR LIFE-GIVING `RESOURCES. 3

`THE BALANCE BETWEEN ENVIRONMENT 3 `AND DEVELOPMENT MAY BE NOVEL IN 3 `MOST ADVANCED COUNTRIES, BUT IT 3 `IS NOT A NEW IDEA TO US. 3 `THIS HAS BEEN OUR APPROACH IN `THE BLUE PACIFIC FROM TIME `IMMEMORIAL. 3 `THE OCEAN STATES, THE CLIMATE, 3 `TIDES, CYCLONES, THE FOREST AND 3 `THE RAINFALL, ALL DEFINE EVERY 3 `DAY LIFE. `AND THIS TOURIST DESTINATION 3 `EMERGING FROM PANDEMIC, FIJI IS 3 `USING THE REOPENING TO THE 3 `WORLD FOR A RESET FOR A HIGHLY 3 `SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT 3 `TOURISM SECTOR. `WITH COVID, WE ARE ON COURSE TO `WELCOME ONE MILLION VISITORS `SURPASSING FIJI'S POPULATION. `WE NEVER DOUBTED THAT OUR `TOURISM BRAND WOULD BOUNCE `BACK. 3

`WITH ARRIVALS CLIMBING, WE NOW 3 `HAVE THE PROOF. `TO PROTECT AGAINST FUTURE 3 `ADVERSITY TO MAKE IT TRULY 3 `SUSTAINABLE. 3 `AND FIJI SHOULD COME TO SEE OUR 3 `FOR R FOREST AND BEAUTIFUL 3 `BIODIVERSITY. 3 `THE MONEY THEY SPEND IN FIJI TO 3 `HELP PROTECT THE ECOSYSTEMS AND 3 `THEY SHOULD LEAVE WITH A NEW 3 `UNDERSTANDING OF THE VALUE OF 3 `THE MARVELS OF NATURE THEY 3 `EXPERIENCE IN OUR ISLANDS. 3

`THE ONUS IS ON US TO TAKE 3 `ACTION, TO ENSURE THAT THE 3 `OCEANS ARE PROTECTED, NOT ONLY 3 `FOR TOURISM, NOT ONLY FOR THE 3 `ECONOMIC BENEFITS THEY BRING TO 3 `US, BUT FOR THE INTRINSIC VALUE 3 `AS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF OUR 3 `GLOBAL ECOSYSTEM. 3 `OUR PRIME MINISTER, HE HAS 3 `STAND ON THE GLOBAL ARENA 3 `FOCUSING OH THE WORLD'S 3 `ATTENTION ON THE PLIGHT 3 `SMALL ISLAND STATES IN DEALING 3 `WITH UNSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT 3 `AND CHANGE. `WE MUST FORCE THE WORLD TO `LOOK. 3

`WE MUST HOLD THEIR ATTENTION 3 `UNTIL THEY ACTUALLY SEE WHAT IS 3 `HAPPENING. `BUT WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE WORLD `TO CATCH UP, WE ARE TAKING `ACTIONS AT HOME. 3 `WE CANNOT ASK OTHERS TO DO WHAT 3 `WE ARE NOT WILLING TO `COOURSELVES. 3 `FIJI IS NOW COMMITTED TO A LONG- 3 `TERM NATIONAL FRAMEWORK THAT 3 `MAKES SUSTAINABILITY A DRIVING 3 `PRINCIPLE FOR VIRTUALLY ALL 3 `GOVERNMENT ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES. 3

`IT IS A NATIONAL APPROACH TO A 3 `BLUE AND GREENER FUTURE. 3 `WE ARE STREAMLINING TOURISM 3 `RELATIONS PROMOTING TOURISM 3 `INVESTMENT, AND BUILDING 3 `CAPACITY FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. 3 `WE ARE ALSO DEVELOPING THE 3 `FRAMEWORK TO ENGAGE THE PRIVATE 3 `SECTOR IN THE MANAGEMENT AND 3 `ENFORCEMENT OF MARINE PROTECTED 3 `AREAS. `THE OLD BUSINESS MODEL MUST `MAKE SPACE FOR A MODEL CENTERED `AROUND PROTECTING FORESTS, `MARINE PROTECTED AREAS THAT `BECOME SITES FOR MAN GROVE. 3

`ORGANIC FARMS THAT PUT HEALTHY 3 `AND CARBON NEUTRAL, RENEWABLE 3 `POWERED HOTELS AND RESTAURANTS. 3 `FIJI IS COMMITTING TO `INCREASING DIGITAL CONNECTIVITY `AND IMPROVING TRANSPORTATION. 3 `AND ADDITIONALLY OUR TOURISM 3 `INDUSTRY HAS STRONGLY ALIGNED 3 `ITSELF TO THE PROTECTION OF OUR 3 `MARINE ECOSYSTEM AND EMPLOYING 3 `TECHNOLOGIES THAT USES THE 3 `RESOURCES EFFICIENTLY, THIS FULL STATEMENT ALSO CF1 O 3 pCONTAINS ELEMENTS OF A GREEN O CF1 O pSHIPPING CORRIDOR, AND YOU CAN O CF1 O 3 pFIND IT ON THE STATE DEPARTMENT O CF1 O pWEBSITE IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN O CF1 O 3 pTAKING A PEEK.

CF1 O 3 pEACH OF US HERE ON THIS PANEL O CF1 O pARE FORTUNATE TO HAVE BEEN O CF1 O 3 pRAISED IN A PLACE AND IN O CF1 O pTRADITION. O CF1 O pWE ARE ALL INDIGENOUS PEOPLES O CF1 O 3 pWHO HAVE LEARNED AND GREW O CF1 O pRAISED IN KINSHIP WITH NATURE. O CF1 O 3 pAND THAT IS NOT WITHOUT O CF1 O pSIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES FOR THE O CF1 O 3 pTREMENDOUS MULTIGENERATIONAL O CF1 O pHARDSHIP AND CHANGE THAT OUR O CF1 O 3 pPEOPLE HAVE ALL ENDURED. O CF1 O

pWE'RE HERE REALLY TO SHARE SOME O CF1 O 3 pOF THESE IMPORTANT STORIES. O CF1 O pAND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE O CF1 O 3 pINSIGHT OF KIND OF WHAT, HOW, O CF1 O pAND WHY OF INDIGENOUS LED O CF1 O 3 pCONSERVATION. O CF1 O 3 pSO LITTLE OF OUR GLOBAL OCEAN, O CF1 O pAS WE HEARD THROUGHOUT THE DAY, O CF1 O 3 pIS PROTECTED. O CF1 O 3 pBUT MUCH OF IT THAT HAS BEEN O CF1 O pPROTECTED HAS COME FROM ISLAND O CF1 O 3 pLEADERS AND COMMUNITIES, FROM O CF1 O pPLACES BARELY DISCERNIBLE FROM O CF1 O 3 pSPACE, TO PROTECT AND CF1 O pRESPONSIBLY CARE FOR PEOPLE BY O CF1 O 3 pPROTECTING AND RESPONSIBLY O CF1 O pCARING FOR OUR PLACES. O CF1 O 3 pFOR OUR LAND, AND OUR SEA THAT O CF1 O pFEEDS US, NOT JUST PHYSICALLY, O CF1 O 3 pBUT SPIRITUALLY, EMOTIONALLY, O CF1 O pAND IN EVERY OTHER WAY. O CF1 O 3 pAS INDIGENOUS PEOPLE, WE O CF1 O pDESKREMD ! DESEND O CF1 O 3 pFROM CULTURES DEEPLY ROOTED IN O CF1 O pTHE NATURAL WORLD, THAT ENABLES O CF1 O 3 pUS TO BE IN TUNE WITH THE O CF1 O pMICROCHANGES AND MAKE DECISIONS, O CF1 O 3 pSHORT, MEDIUM, LONG-TERM, AND O CF1 O pMULTIGENERATIONAL, SO THAT THOSE O CF1 O 3 pDECISIONS CAN BE GROUNDED IN THE O CF1 O pNATURAL WORLD AND BRING THAT O CF1 O 3 pKNOWLEDGE OF HOW WE THOUGHT O CF1 O pABOUT PROBLEM SOLVE ING ! ING TO THE CF1 O pPROBLEMS PERSISTING TODAY. O CF1 O 3

pTHE INFORMATION AND SOME OF THE O CF1 O pHISTORICAL, ECOLOGICAL AND O CF1 O 3 pCULTURAL INFORMATION CONTAINED O CF1 O pWITHIN OUR LANGUAGES, WITHIN OUR O CF1 O 3 pPLACEMENTS, OUR STORIES, OUR O CF1 O pCHANTS THAT YOU JUST WITNESSED, O CF1 O 3 pTHEY ARE STILL RELEVANT TODAY. O CF1 O pHOW DO WE KNOW? O CF1 O pIT WAS ALREADY ACKNOWLEDGED O CF1 O 3 pTODAY. O CF1 O 3 pIT'S EVIDENT BY THE FACT THAT IT O CF1 O pIS IN THE HANDS OF THE O CF1 O 3 pINDIGENOUS PEOPLE AND LOCAL O CF1 O pCOMMUNITIES. O CF1 O pTHOSE WHO STILL REMAIN CLOSEST O CF1 O 3 pTO NATURE. O CF1 O 3

pIN FACT, IT'S ESTIMATED THAT O CF1 O pINDIGENOUS PEOPLE AND THOSE WHO O CF1 O 3 pCONTINUE TO LIVE CLOSE TO THE O CF1 O pLAND OR HAVE TENURE RIGHTS, OVER O CF1 O 3 pA QUARTER OF THE LAND BASE ON O CF1 O pEARTH, THAT CONTAIN 40% OF O CF1 O 3 pECOLOGICALLY CF1 O pECOLOGICALLY TACT -- IT'S PRETTY O CF1 O 3 pGOOD STATICS. O CF1 O 3 pSOME ESTIMATE THAT AS EVEN O CF1 O pHIGHER. O CF1 O pSHAR CALCULATION HAS NOT BEEN O CF1 O 3 pDONE FOR THE OCEAN. CF1 O pIT'S NOT QUITE AS O CF1 O 3 pSTRAIGHTFORWARD, BUT CLEARLY O CF1 O pPROSHGS TECH CF1 O pPROTECTIONS OF OCEANS CONTINUES O CF1 O 3 pTO BE STRONG BY INDIGENOUS O CF1 O pCOMMUNITIES. O CF1 O pUSING INDIGENOUS APPROACHES, O CF1 O 3 pALONGSIDE UNDERSTANDINGS O CF1 O pGENERATED THROUGH CONVENTIONAL O CF1 O 3 pSCIENCE. O CF1 O 3 pYOU HEARD FROM SOME OF THESE O CF1 O pLEADERS ALREADY TODAY. O

CF1 O 3 pIT'S BEEN WONDERFUL TO HEAR HOW O CF1 O pMUCH WE HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN O CF1 O 3 pABOUT INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE AND O CF1 O pTHE IMPORTANCE OF THIS, AND THAT O CF1 O 3 pYOU HAVE ALREADY HEARD FROM O CF1 O pSYSTEM OF THESE INDIGENOUS O CF1 O 3 pLEADERS. O CF1 O 3 pTHERE ARE MANY MORE, IF YOU LOOK O CF1 O pAROUND IN THIS AUDIENCE, AND O CF1 O 3 pCLEARLY IN THIS CIRCLE HERE ON O CF1 O pSTAGE. O CF1 O pI'VE INTRODUCED MYSELF AND I O CF1 O 3 pWOULD LIKE TO ASK EVERYONE ELSE O CF1 O pON THE STAGE TO INTRODUCE O CF1 O 3 pTHEMSELVES IN A WAY THAT IS IN O CF1 O pLINE WITH THEIR OWN TRADITIONS O CF1 O 3 pWHO THEY ARE. O CF1 O 3 pIF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE O CF1 O pABOUT WHAT THEY DO, YOU CAN LOOK O CF1 O 3 pAT OUR BIOS ON THE WEBSITE. O CF1 O 7 CC1 O CF1 O 3 6 CC1 O CF1 O I COME FROM INDONESIA.

O CF1 O 3 pSO -- O CF1 O 3 pI'M WORKING WITH A COMMUNITY O CF1 O pTHERE, AND I WANT TO INTRODUCE O CF1 O 3 pMYSELF AND MY CUSTOMARY O CF1 O pTRADITION. O CF1 O pTHANK YOU. O CF1 O 7 CC1 O CF1 O 3 6 CC1 O CF1 O HELLO, EVERYONE. O CF1 O 3 pMY NAME IS ANTHONY, AND I COME O CF1 O pFROM A SMALL ISLAND. O CF1 O 3 7 CC1 O CF1 O 3 6 CC1 O CF1 O I AM FROM A CLAN FROM THE O CF1 O 3 pISLAND OF FIJI.

O CF1 O 3

pI COME FROM A LONG LINE O CF1 O pWARRIORS. O CF1 O 3 pONE ROLE WE COMMONLY PLAY IS TO O CF1 O pPROVIDED A VICE TO THE CHIEF OF O CF1 O 3 pTHE ISLAND. O CF1 O 3 pI AM VERY FORTUNATE TO BE PART O CF1 O pOF AN ORGANIZATION THAT CARES O CF1 O 3 pABOUT TRADITIONAL AND INDIGENOUS O CF1 O pPEOPLE AND I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE O CF1 O 3 pTO EXPAND THE ROLE NOT ONLY TO O CF1 O pMY PEOPLE, BUT ALSO TO OTHER O CF1 O 3 pPROVINCES WITHIN FIJI. CF1 O pAND HOPEFULLY TO A WHOLE REGION O CF1 O 3 pOF THE PACIFIC. O CF1 O 3

7 CC1 O CF1 O 3 6 CC1 O CF1 O MY NAME IS REPRESENTATIVE O CF1 O 3 pSHEILA. O CF1 O 3 pI WAS BORN AND RAISED ON O CF1 O pISLAND CALLED SAIPAN IN THE O CF1 O 3 pMARIANNA ISLANDS, LOCATED RIGHT O CF1 O pNEXT TO OUR WORLD'S DEEPEST O CF1 O 3 pPOINT IN THE OCEAN, THE MARIANNA O CF1 O 3 pIOWA ! AS TRENCH. O CF1 O pI LOVE WORKING WITH OUR YOUTH, O CF1 O 3 pHAVING THEM ENGAGE IN OCEAN O CF1 O pCONSERVATION AND CLIMATE O CF1 O 3 pSOLUTIONS. O CF1 O 3 pTHEY BRING SO MUCH JOY AND O CF1 O pENERGY TO THIS WORK. O

CF1 O 3 pPRESIDENT OBAMA ONCE TOLD O CF1 O pTHAT RAISING AWARENESS, O CF1 O 3 pGATHERING ALLIES, ARE IMPORTANT O CF1 O pSTEPS WHEN FACING COMPLEX, LARGE O CF1 O 3 pISSUES, AND INSTITUTIONS THAT O CF1 O pARE LARGER THAN US. O CF1 O 3 pSO I AM HERE TODAY TO RAISE O CF1 O pAWARENESS, GATHER ALLIES, AND O CF1 O 3 pLISTEN TO THE VOICES. CF1 O pI'M SO EXCITED TO BE PART OF O CF1 O 3 pTHIS PANEL. O CF1 O 3 pTHANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. O CF1 O HI, I'M A TRAINED HUNTER AND O CF1 O 3 pFISHERMEN. O CF1 O 3

pI THINK I KNOW WHAT I AM DOING. O CF1 O p[ LAUGHTER ] O CF1 O pTHANK YOU. O CF1 O 7 CC1 O CF1 O 3 6 CC1 O CF1 O WE'RE NOT IN A TRADITIONAL O CF1 O 3 pCIRCLE. O CF1 O 3 pEVEN IF WE WERE, WE WOULD COME O CF1 O pFROM SO MANY TRADITIONS, THAT WE O CF1 O 3 pWOULD ALL GET CONFUSED AS TO TWO O CF1 O pWOULD TALK NEXT. O CF1

O 3 pI'M GOING TO ASSIST A LITTLE BIT O CF1 O pIN THIS PROCESS, BUT JOIN WITH O CF1 O 3 pUS AND IMAGINE. O CF1 O 3 pI'M GOING TO TRY TO DEVELOP A O CF1 O pCONVERSATION HERE IN THE TIME O CF1 O 3 pTHAT WE HAVE REMAINING. O CF1 O pSO I'M GOING TO START WITH YOU O CF1 O 3 pTO, YOU KNOW, HOW DO YOU O CF1 O pINVOLVE -- YOU KNOW, A LOT OF O CF1 O 3 pPEOPLE ASK US, HOW DO YOU WORK O CF1 O pWITH INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES? O CF1 O 3 pHOW DO YOU INVOLVE THEM O CF1 O pDECISION MAKING? O CF1 O pSO CAN YOU JUST SHARE WITH US O CF1 O 3 pHOW YOU DO THAT AND GIVE US SOME O CF1 O pEXAMPLES OR HIGHLIGHT SOME O CF1 O 3 pSOLUTIONS OF HOW THAT'S BEEN O CF1 O pDONE? O CF1 O YEAH. O CF1 O pIN WEST PAPAU, WE HAVE A LOCAL O CF1 O 3 pCOMMUNITY THAT O CF1 O 3 pCOMMUNITY. O CF1 O 3

pESPECIALLY FOR THE -- CF1 O pSTARTING WHEN THE PLANNING TO O CF1 O 3 pMAKE THE MPA PROGRAM, THE STAB O CF1 O 3 pLUSHED PROGRAM, IT MUST O CF1 O pAPPROVED BY THE LOCAL COMMUNITY O CF1 O 3 pTHERE. O CF1 O 3 pSO THEY CAN GIVE ADVICE FOR THE O CF1 O pCONSERVATION PROCESS. O CF1 O 3 pBECAUSE A TRADITION ! AL CUSTOMARY O CF1 O 3 pPRACTISE IN THE ISLANDS. O CF1 O pSO WHEN THE ESTABLISHED -- O CF1 O 3 pWHAT CAN DO IN CONSERVATION O CF1 O 3 pAREA. O CF1 O 3

pWE HAVE A MECHANISM OF SUPPORT O CF1 O pING FINANCE. O CF1 O 3 pAND IT'S LIKE -- FROM THE O CF1 O 3 pGOVERNMENT. O CF1 O 3 pDECIDING FROM THE PROGRAM AND O CF1 O pTHE MONEY TO SUPPORT. O CF1 O 3 SOUNDS LIKE REALLY MAKING O CF1 O pSURE THAT THERE IS CLARITY WITH O CF1 O 3 pA LOT OF SOCIALIZATION AND O CF1 O pENGAGEMENT ALONG THE WAY. O CF1 O 3 pI'M JUST CURIOUS, YOU KNOW, O CF1 O pTHERE HAVE BEEN FIELD EXCHANGES O CF1 O 3 pBETWEEN WEST PAPAU AND YOUR O CF1 O pISLAND IN FIJI. O CF1 O pI THINK IT WAS PRIOR TO COVID, O CF1 O 3 pRIGHT, BUT WHAT STRUCK YOU MAYBE O CF1 O pTHAT IS SIMILAR OR MAYBE O CF1 O 3 pDIFFERENT FROM YOUR ISLANDS? O CF1 O THERE ARE A LOT OF O CF1 O 3 pSIMILARITIES, THERE ARE ALSO A O CF1 O pLOT OF DIFFERENCES. O

CF1 O 3 pWHAT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS THE O CF1 O pFACT THAT WE HAVE A LOT OF O CF1 O 3 pNATURAL RESOURCES. CF1 O pWE HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF NATURAL O CF1 O 3 pRESOURCES IN MY COUNTRY, IN MY O CF1 O pPROVINCE WHERE I COME FROM. O CF1 O 3 pTHE CHALLENGES THAT WE HAD IS O CF1 O pTHAT WE WERE BEGINNING TO TALK O CF1 O 3 pTO ASK THEM PUTTING ASIDE THE O CF1 O pWHOLE PROBLEMS AND THEY WANTED O CF1 O 3 pTO HAVE SOME SUBSTANCE AND O CF1 O pEXAMPLE O CF1 O 3 pEXAMPLES. O CF1 O 3 pWE'RE VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE THE O CF1 O pCOMMUNITIES TO TALK TO THEM AND O CF1 O 3 pEXCHANGE LESSONED LEARNED. O CF1 O pIN THAT EXCHANGE, ONE OF THE O CF1 O 3 pTHINGS THAT RESONATED WELL WAS O CF1 O pTHE NEED TO HAVE CLEAR DECISION O CF1 O 3 pMAKING PROCESS, AS WELL O CF1 O pHAVING A PURE VISION MOVING O CF1 O 3 pFORWARD. O CF1 O 3

pSO AT THE END OF THE EXCHANGE O CF1 O pTHAT WE HAD, THE CHIEF DECIDED O CF1 O 3 pTOGETHER THAT THEY NEEDED O CF1 O pHAVE A STRATEGY. O CF1 O pSO WE STARTED DEVELOPING WHAT WE O CF1 O 3 pARE CALLING -- WE HAVE A LIVING O CF1 O pDOCUMENT THAT WE HAVE NOW, AND O CF1 O 3 pIT'S DIVIDING ALL THE PARTNERS O CF1 O pTHAT WANT TO WORK IN THE O CF1 O 3 pPROVINCE AND DO DEVELOPMENT O CF1 O pWORK. O CF1 O IT REALLY MADE A DIFFERENCE. O CF1 O 3 pOTHER INDIGENOUS PEOPLE TO BE O CF1 O pABLE TO SHARE THE EXPERIENCES, O CF1 O 3 pTHAT RELEVANCE TOGETHER. O CF1 O

pI'M GOING TO ASK YOU THE NEXT O CF1 O 3 pQUESTION, BUT BEFORE I DO, I O CF1 O pJUST WONDER AS A COOK ISLANDER, O CF1 O 3 pCOMING FROM ANOTHER GENERATION, O CF1 O pWHAT IS YOUR REFLECTIONS ON WHAT O CF1 O 3 pYOU JUST HEARD? O CF1 O 3 IT'S AN INTERESTING ONE, O CF1 O pBECAUSE WITH THE NEXT GENERATION O CF1 O 3 pAND EVEN THE GENERATION AFTER O CF1 O pME, GETTING INTO THESE SPACES O CF1 O 3 pWHERE THERE'S A GRADUAL INCREASE O CF1 O pOF LOCAL INVOLVEMENT IS BEING O CF1 O 3 pRECOGNIZED AND EVEN OTHER O CF1 O pCOASTAL COMMUNITIES. O CF1 O 3 pTHERE IS ONE THING I WORRY O CF1 O pABOUT, AND THAT'S WITH THE O CF1 O 3 pDEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGY, THIS O CF1 O pIS A GOOD THING ACTUALLY. O CF1 O 3 pWITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF O CF1 O pTECHNOLOGY, WE HAVE THESE NEW O CF1 O 3 pGENERATION PEOPLE COMING O CF1 O pTHROUGH, INDIGENOUS PEOPLE, AND O CF1 O 3 pTHEY HAVE THIS INFRASTRUCTURE, O CF1 O pTHESE RESOURCES TO PROMOTE O CF1 O 3 pINDIGENOUS PROTECTED AREAS. O CF1 O pAND THAT'S REALLY COOL.

O CF1 O 3 pTHE THING THAT CONCERNS ME IS O CF1 O pTHAT ALSO WITH THIS ADVANCED O CF1 O 3 pTECHNOLOGY, THEY ARE GETTING O CF1 O pRESTRICTED FROM THEIR GOAL. O CF1 O 3 pAND THAT'S SOMETHING I WORRY O CF1 O pABOUT, BUT I'M HOPING THAT WE O CF1 O 3 pCAN STILL CREATE ENOUGH O CF1 O pRESOURCES TO SEE THE VALUE IN O CF1 O 3 pWORKING TOGETHER ACROSS THE O CF1 O pNATIONS. O CF1 O I REALLY APPRECIATE HEARING O CF1 O 3 pTHAT, YOU KNOW, HAVING KIDS OF O CF1 O pMY MINE THAT ARE INTERESTED IN O CF1 O 3 pSCIENCES, BUT ALSO TECHNOLOGY, O CF1 O pTO HAVE THAT HONEST REFLECTION. O CF1 O 3

pBUT YOU'RE GETTING YOUR Ph.D. IN O CF1 O pFISHERIES. O CF1 O pYOU'RE CLEARLY BUILDING BOTH O CF1 O 3 pYOUR SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE BASE O CF1 O pAND CONTINUING YOUR KNOWLEDGE O CF1 O 3 pBASE AS A COOK ISLAND. CF1 O pWHAT ARE SOME OF THE CHALLENGES O CF1 O 3 pAND OPPORTUNITIES THAT YOU SEE? O CF1 O pTHAT'S WHAT YOU'RE GETTING YOUR O CF1 O 3 pPh.D. IN, RIGHT? O CF1 O 3 YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. CF1 O

pLOOKING AT THE COASTAL O CF1 O 3 pFISHERIES, ON MY HOMELAND, O CF1 O pLOOKING AT FISHERIES THAT PEOPLE O CF1 O 3 pARE NOT TALKING ABOUT IN THE O CF1 O pSCIENTIFIC LITERATURE. O CF1 O 3 pTHE DESIGN OF THIS CASE STUDY, O CF1 O pTHE COMMON THEME IN THE PACIFIC O CF1 O 3 pWAS COMMERCIAL FISHERIES. O CF1 O pVERY LITTLE TO KNOW SCIENTIFIC O CF1 O 3 pDATA AROUND THE SUBSISTENCE AND O CF1 O pARTISINAL FISHERIES. O CF1 O 3 pTHESE THINGS ARE GOING O CF1 O pUNDOCUMENTED. O CF1 O pSO BECAUSE THESE PLACES ARE DATA O CF1 O 3 pPOOR, IT'S VERY DIFFICULT WHEN O CF1 O pIT COMES TO HAVING INFORMED O CF1 O 3 pDECISION MAKING SITUATIONS. O CF1 O

pAND THE BEST WE HAVE AT THE O CF1 O 3 pMOMENT IS A LOCAL -- THE O CF1 O pCHALLENGES ARE GETTING MORE O CF1 O 3 pPEOPLE, MORE SCIENTISTS, AND O CF1 O pBEYOND SCIENTISTS, GOING INTO O CF1 O 3 pTHESE AREAS, AND WE CAN START TO O CF1 O pGENERATE A PICTURE OF WHAT IT O CF1 O 3 pLOOKS LIKE, ARE OUR PEOPLE SAFE? O CF1 O pARE THEY GOING TO BE SECURED TO O CF1 O 3 pWISE FOR THE FUTURE? CF1 O pTRYING TO GET ACCESS TO BEING O CF1 O 3 pABLE TO DO THAT. O CF1 O AND I SAID I WASN'T GOING TO O CF1 O 3 pASK YOU A QUESTION, BUT WHY DID O CF1 O pYOU PICK THAT? O CF1 O pBECAUSE YOU WENT UNCONVENTIONAL, O CF1 O 3 pYOU DECIDED TO GO FOR THE O CF1 O pFISHERIES. O CF1 O pWHAT DROVE YOU TO THAT? O CF1 O 3 YEAH, IT WAS ACTUALLY -- I O CF1 O pDON'T KNOW THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO O CF1 O 3 pGET INTO IT UNTIL I GOT INTO IT, O CF1 O pREALLY. O CF1 O

pI WANTED TO DO SOMETHING THAT I O CF1 O 3 pWOULD THINK THAT I WOULD FALL IN O CF1 O pLOVE WITH. O CF1 O pAND I WANTED SOMETHING THAT WAS O CF1 O 3 pPOTENTIALLY HELPFUL FOR PEOPLE, O CF1 O pAND THE ENVIRONMENT. O CF1 O 3 pSO I THOUGHT FOOD SECURITY. O CF1 O

pWHY NOT TAKE THIS CASE STUDY O CF1 O 3 pHOME TO THE PEOPLE THAT I CARE O CF1 O pABOUT, AND THAT I LOVE, AND AS A O CF1 O 3 pBYPRODUCT OF ALL THAT, PERHAPS I O CF1 O pCOULD INHERIT A BIT MORE O CF1 O 3 pKNOWLEDGE AROUND INDIGENOUS O CF1 O pFISHERIES MANAGEMENT. O CF1 O 3 pAND BEING THE NEXUS BETWEEN O CF1 O pBEING A SCIENTIST AND ALSO AN O CF1 O 3 pINDIGENOUS, YEAH, IT'S A BIT OF O CF1 O pA -- MAKES ME THINK PERHAPS I O CF1 O 3 pCAN GO ON THAT LATER, BUT WHEN O CF1 O pWE TALK ABOUT INDIGENOUS O CF1 O 3 pFISHERIES MANAGEMENT, PEOPLE O CF1 O pDON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT O CF1 O 3 pDOES IT MEAN? O CF1 O 3 pWHERE DOES IT COME FROM? O CF1 O pWHERE DOES THIS INDIGENOUS O CF1 O 3 pKNOWLEDGE COME FROM? CF1 O pTHAT INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE IS O CF1 O 3 pPASSED OVER GENERATIONS O CF1 O pOBSERVATION, AND OBSERVING THE O CF1 O 3 pECOLOGY. O CF1 O 3 pBUT BASICALLY, THE WAY WHAT IS O CF1 O pSO AMAZE ! ING IS WHEN YOU LOOK AT O CF1 O 3 pTHE LOCAL WAY OF DOING THINGS, O CF1 O pTHESE BASE THEIR FUSH ! ISHERIES ON CF1 O pTHINGS LIKE THE WEATHER AND WIND O CF1 O 3 pDIRECTION, THE TIME OF YEAR, O CF1 O pMOON PHASES AND RELATING THAT TO O CF1 O 3 pASSOCIATED FISH AGGREGATIONS IN O CF1 O pTHE AREA. O CF1 O

pBASICALLY, WHAT IS SO COOL ABOUT O CF1 O 3 pTHAT, IF WE BREAK IT DOWN, THIS O CF1 O pINFORMATION ARE LIKE A O CF1 O 3 pNATURAL -- ESSENTIALLY, A O CF1 O pNATURAL MOBILE FISHING O CF1 O 3 pINSTRUCTION. O CF1 O 3 pWHAT I MEAN IS, IF THE WEATHER O CF1 O pIS POOR ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE O CF1 O 3 pISLAND, YOU WILL WISH ON THE O CF1 O pWEST. O CF1 O pIF THE WEATHER IS POOR OUT IN O CF1 O 3 pTHE OCEAN, YOU WILL FISH FROM O CF1 O pTHE REEF. O CF1 O pIF THE WEATHER IS BEAUTIFUL OUT O CF1 O 3 pIN THE OCEAN, YOU WILL FISH FROM O CF1 O pTHE OCEAN. O CF1 O pIF THERE IS A FISH AGGREGATION O CF1 O 3 pCOMING IN CLOSE TO THE ISLAND, O CF1 O pWE'RE LEAVING FISH FOR OTHER O CF1 O 3 pFISH. O CF1 O 3 pIT IS A NATURAL, MOBILE FISHING O CF1 O pRESTRICTION. O CF1 O

pAND THESE ARE THE SORT OF O CF1 O 3 pFUNDAMENTALS THAT SORT OF DEFINE O CF1 O pTRADITION AL ! O CF1 O pTRADITIONAL FISHERIES O CF1 O 3 pMANAGEMENT. O CF1 O 3 IT DOESN'T SOUND DATA POOR AT O CF1 O pALL. O CF1 O pTHANKS. O CF1 O pSO YOU ARE TRAINING NEXT O CF1 O 3 pGENERATION PEOPLE, PEOPLE LIKE O CF1 O pANTHONY. O CF1 O pTELL US ABOUT THAT EXPERIENCE. O CF1 O 3 pHOW ARE YOU AS A TEACHER, REALLY O CF1 O pEXPLORING SOME OF THESE AND O CF1 O 3 pBRIDGING THESE SO THAT PEOPLE O CF1 O pLIKE ANTHONY CAN HAVE THESE O CF1 O 3 pPATHWAYS THAT WEREN'T AFFORDED O CF1 O pTO MOST OF US? O CF1 O I THINK I -- IT IS A BIG O CF1 O 3 pCHALLENGE TO ME, MAYBE TO US. O CF1 O

pLET ME TALK ABOUT THAT. O CF1 O 3 pIT IS MY -- O CF1 O 3 pI THINK IT IS ONE BIG CHALLENGE O CF1 O pTO ME, TO US. O CF1 O 3 pBECAUSE LOCAL KNOWLEDGE O CF1 O pCUSTOMARY RULE FOR THE YOUNG O CF1 O 3 pTODAY. O CF1 O 3 pKNOWING ABOUT -- O CF1 O 3 pTELL ABOUT THE BIODIVERSITY, O CF1 O pTELL ABOUT -- O CF1 O 3 pAND THEN HELP PEOPLE IN THE O CF1 O pDIRECTION OF THE RESOURCES IN O CF1 O 3 pPAPAU. O CF1 O 3 pSO I GIVE THE EXERCISE TO O CF1 O pSTUDENT, AND THEN TALK ABOUT THE O CF1 O 3 pPRACTICES. O CF1 O 3 pIT'S INTERESTING TO KNOW, AND O CF1 O 3 pTHEN SECOND, I THINK THE SECOND O CF1 O pCAUSE IS ABOUT THE COMMUNITY. O CF1 O 3

pTHE COASTAL COMMUNITY. O CF1 O 3 pSO TALKABLE HOW TO -- PEOPLE IN O CF1 O 3 pTHE COASTAL AREAS -- CF1 O pAND THEN HOW TO KNOW HOW TO O CF1 O 3 pCHARACTERIZE IS IMPORTANT. O CF1 O 3 pSO KNOW WHO YOU ARE. CF1 O 3 pIT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO THINK -- O CF1 O 3 pAND THEN IT IS A FIRST. O CF1 O

pAND THE SECOND IS, WE CAN MAKE O CF1 O 3 pONE MODEL. O CF1 O 3 pABOUT THE PRACTICES IN THE O CF1 O pDIRECTION OF THE RESOURCES IN O CF1 O 3 pPAPA. O CF1 O pSO THE -- O CF1 O pI REMEMBER THE STUDENT.
