Introducing Pacific RISA’s “Documoments” – Stories of climate impacts on Pacific Islands
About this Project
From drought impacts on ranching to sea-level rise impacts on tourism, we convey climate stories using brief video clips called “documoments.” These stories describe the experiences of people from diverse walks of life. The documoments are a starting point for helping policy makers to understand real-world climate impacts and the need for usable climate information.
Climate Matters for Ridge to Reef Ecosystems – By Tova Callender (West Maui Ridge-to-Reef) and Chris Brosius (Mauna Kahalawai Watershed Partnership)
Production support provided by the East-West Center and the Pacific RISA, funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Climate Program Office.
The Climate Matters Documoments support learning about climate change in the Pacific Islands. Our goal is to make them accessible in a variety of formats. If you would like to use these resources, please contact Pacific RISA via KeenerV@eastwestcenter.org.
Resilient and sustainable Pacific Island communities using climate information to manage risks and support practical decision-making about climate variability and change.
