Enhancing Security Sector Governance in the Pacific Region |
|
|
February 2010
The Pacific region has witnessed violent conflict, civil unrest and political crises. This has led to a growing recognition of the critical role of law enforcement agencies and security institutions. However, in recent years, there have been concerns that these institutions lack capacity to meet the challenge of providing security to the general public; that governments do not have the necessary civilian security expertise to manage them; that legislatures are not empowered to oversee them; and that security forces are not held accountable under the law for their actions. This publication is intended to support regional and national stakeholders to develop appropriate policies and programming.
NOTE: On page 5 we have amended the acknowledgements recognising Laura Mazal's contribution while she was working for UNDP and PIFS and NOT for the UK Department for International Development.

This publication synthesises the issues and outcomes from the workshop on the Gendered Dimensions of Disaster Risk Management and Adaptation to Climate Change held in Suva, Fiji, in February 2008.
It provides a starting point for further discussion and exchange on issues of climate change, natural resource management and the importance of integrating gender into policy and program activities. UNDP Pacific Centre hopes donors and development practitioners across the region listen to the Pacific voices included in this publication and use it as a tool to guide the substance and direction of future programming in disaster risk management and adaptation to climate change.

Workshop Report: Integrating Human Rights in Natural Disaster Management in the Pacific |
|
|
May 2007
The overall objective of this workshop was to increase the awareness and skills of UN staff and national and regional counterparts, especially those involved in disaster relief and recovery operations and programming, about the relevance of human rights issues in disaster management. It is foreseen that an increased awareness will ultimately reduce the vulnerability of affected populations, vulnerable groups and individuals, enable transition to normalcy and contribute to increased risk reduction, all within a human rights-based framework.
