 In the past two days we had this meeting with stakeholders from all over the world, nearly 100 people coming from all parts of the world to talk about migration and climate change. This was an important meeting because migration and climate change is still a topic that has not been discussed as much as it could have been. On this occasion we had the chance to talk not only about the bigger picture but also about what's going on in specific countries. This meeting of the Task Force on Climate Change and Displacement is bringing together international stakeholders in different organisations, governments, academics, to take stock of all the possibilities that already exist to help people that are risking displacement or who already have been displaced. The Task Force has to submit recommendations to the Conference of State Parties to the UN Climate Change Convention. So it's a first step but I think it's a very important step because many good practices already exist but they need to be implemented, we need to bring them together, we need to work across silos and this is one step towards achieving that goal. The COP at the COP24 will be able to give some direction to parties and to countries themselves to say well this is the sort of thing that we want you to look at at a domestic level, at an annual region and that they'll be able to encourage governments to take forward this work and to sort of embed this work into their national adaptation planning and international development planning for themselves and for countries in their region. The next COP is quite critical to make a change in our understanding of climate change, displacement and take action based on a very integrated approach. So my message is one, it's very important to have support to national approach and second, it's always critical and important to have prevention as a major because we all know that prevention is now on the top of the agenda. Coming from the Pacific which is a small island state, we are often not left out but we are often not in the priority list, maybe because of our remoteness or maybe because of our smallness so we need to really think big and you know be bold on what we are trying to articulate to our global leaders so that they could also invest in the South Pacific as one of the region that needs urgent attention in terms of development. We realise if we invest today in climate change action it can mean less forced migration happening in future generations.
