Working through loss from climate change in the Pacific Islands (2020–2024)
- Abstract:
- As global efforts to respond to climate change fail to protect the most vulnerable, its impacts will continue to cause grief and suffering through loss of life, wellbeing, place and culture. In-depth understanding of this loss, particularly its non-economic aspects, is limited. The Fellowship program aims to address this gap. Outcomes include a novel framework and methodology to explore how loss is experienced in three Pacific Island countries, providing new ways of working through loss and grief with communities at the frontline of climate change. The outcomes will inform international and national policy and practice, helping people plan and work through this loss, minimise its harm and have greater hope and agency over their futures.
