Sub-Regional Training Workshop on Climate Change Statistics and Indicators

Climate change is one of the most pressing issues in the Pacific region. Many countries are already experiencing intensifying threats such as rising sea levels, increasing ocean acidification, and escalating extreme weather events, profoundly impacting the region's economy, society, and environment. There is a need to address the well-being of people through good evidence-based policy. Reliable statistics and indicators on the impact of climate change are vital to enable evidence-based policy, decision-making, planning and investment. Importantly, these statistics and indicators must be able to speak to the range of economic, social and environmental impacts of climate change in a timely manner. This workshop aims to support capacity building and knowledge sharing across this topic in the region.
