UN climate chief Simon Stiell says the focus is turning pledges into projects. Funafuti Lagoon Planning: Tuvalu Fisheries Authority is seeking a consultant to develop a marine plan with the Funafuti Kaupule and local communities. It aims to coordinate fisheries, port and transshipment activity, coastal reclamation, renewable energy and conservation, while reducing conflicts over lagoon resources. Coastal Resilience: A Commonwealth study puts Tuvalu’s sea-level rise at about 5mm a year and warns that adaptation funding and governance are not yet adequate. Seawalls built along about four kilometres of Tuvalu’s coast offer protection, but climate finance remains a key Pacific demand at COP31.
