Abstract

The countries of Melanesia have reached a crossroads in their development. Melanesia is resource rich, but tie long-term economic viability of the region depends on the governments of those counties recognising the immediate necessity of planning their natural resource use with a view to sustainable development. The Pacific 2010 series has been influential in forcing Melanesian policymakers to confront the big questions about the future of their islands. This book presents a comprehensive view of the challenges faced in establishing economy-wide for sustainable resource use and for action.
