Implementing the Nauru Water Sector Policy - Examples; Experiences, consolidated reply issued on 18th January, 2012
The Pacific Solution Exchange: Climate Change and Development Community, builds on the success of a year long pilot community on Development Effectiveness. The Community was a knowledge facilitation approach initiated by UNDP, the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat, the Asian Development Bank and the University of the South Pacific, which aimed to contribute to strong development cooperation by offering an email based “e-discussion”/consolidated reply service for knowledge sharing, leveraging, connecting and expanding the expertise pool presently diffused across the Pacific, and bridging the knowledge gap by facilitating knowledge sharing with other networks.

Commencing with a trial phase in October 2010, members are engaged in e-discussions via email supported by a team of facilitators. The approach is hoped to initially help members to better share their views and opinions. Based on the feedback from the trial, the Community’s services could then be extended to allow members to ask queries and help each other by sharing knowledge and experience around common development challenges.
