The Pacific Ocean is our home.
These waters and ecosystems, they sustain us, along with thousands of magnificent species.
We depend on the Pacific Ocean for our food and livelihoods.
It is central to our ancient cultures and traditions.
Our economies rely on it.
So does the global climate and economy.
Climate change, overfishing and pollution, have pushed our lands and waters to the brink of collapse.
Our people are facing rising sea levels, intensifying cyclones, degraded ecosystems, and depleted fisheries.
Large-scale investments are needed to help protect the Pacific’s resources.
ADB is a trusted development partner of 14 Pacific island states.
Keeping the region’s ocean ecosystems and its communities healthy and resilient is a key priority for ADB.
ADB is seeking partners to join its new Blue Pacific Finance Hub that will focus on:
- Ocean-climate action for resilient ecosystems and communities;
- Circular economies for pollution-free seas;
- Sustainable seafood for ecosystem health, nutrition and livelihoods.
Empowering women and communities will be key to our success.
Let us work together to build the Blue Pacific Finance Hub for a healthy Pacific Ocean and resilient island nations.
