Regional geoscientists and experts from the mineral resource sector are working on strategies on how to mitigate the unrelenting and imminent threats of climate change from the geoscience perspective.
While speaking at the annual Science Technology and Resources conference in Suva, Minister for Lands and Mineral Resources, Faiyaz Koya, says the conference will provide an opportunity for delegates to present tangible development agenda in areas of prime importance to the Pacific.
Koya says that the Conference is about how people here in the Pacific manoeuvre themselves to prepare and mitigate for the damage that we have imposed on our oceans and the imminent threats of climate change here in the region from the Geoscience perspective.
The three‑day conference will focus on key areas such as ocean geoscience, Science of Natural Hazard and Risks to Pacific Communities including land use, energy and infrastructure development on Pacific Islands.
