Regional Development & Skills: PTC announced exclusive sponsorship of Pacific Women in Telco, expanding a PacificWiT platform to boost youth and women in STEM and digital infrastructure. Pacific Environment Program: SPREP reports progress under SWAP2, including waste and marine-litter work across Tuvalu and other Pacific states.
