In Enga Province in Papua New Guinea, UNDP and the Enga Provincial Government strengthened climate resilience, food security, and ecosystems. Despite COVID-19, tribal conflict, and the 2024 Mulitaka landslide, the EU-funded initiative planted over 180,000 trees and coffee seedlings, modernized coffee production, and supported 5,000 people through fishponds, poultry farms, nurseries, and 30 low-value community grants. @UNDP @UNDPinPNG @EU_Commission

As climate change intensifies, small island nations are often forced to make consequential decisions with incomplete information. Now, Tonga🇹🇴 is changing that. Using LiDAR technology, it is building a precise picture of its islands – powering flood modelling, coastal risk maps and sea-level rise projections to guide the decisions that will shape its future: undp.org/pacific/blog/d… #ClimateAction

Asia and the Pacific’s cities are growing rapidly, now home to 2.2 billion people, with 48 million more added each year until 2050. But growth is deepening inequalities. Nearly 700 million people live in informal settlements, and over 65% of urban workers lack secure jobs and social protection, while climate and environmental pressures are rising. The 2026 Asia Pacific SDG Partnership Report highlights practical solutions to build more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable cities. Let’s act now.
