Climate Finance: Pacific leaders at the Fiji-Tuvalu Pre-COP31 urged stronger support for climate-hit farms, health centres and coastal communities, pressing for resources to turn climate commitments into practical protection. Fisheries: Warming seas are shifting fish stocks and forcing some Pacific fishers to travel farther, while small-scale communities seek more say and funding for conservation. A strengthening El Niño is also expected to disrupt tuna distribution and fishing activity through 2026 and into 2027, with Niue among the countries forecast to face reduced rainfall. Resilience Funding: The Pacific Community recorded US$129.9 million in new climate-finance approvals in 2025, including US$107 million to help tuna-dependent Pacific communities and economies adapt to climate change.
