Description:
The RETA will seek to build an effective climate change adaptation response for the coastal ecosystems and the people that rely on these. The approach taken builds on the findings and lessons learned from previous climate change programs and specifically climate change adaptation initiatives. A major imperative of the RETA is to ensure that climate change is mainstreamed into the wider coastal management framework. The mainstreaming of climate change adaptation seeks to ‘climate proof” the outcomes of integrated coastal zone management. In the Solomons, this focused in on 'mainstreaming' climate change within the aquaculture sector, particularly with the aquaculture work of WorldFish Solomon Islands office.
