As discussions on resilience and climate change are growing amongst different sectors and platforms in the Pacific, formalising practices and creating career pathways through the newly developed Resilience Qualifications has scaled up the need to offer its courses in the region.
A series of Orientations on the Resilience Qualifications was introduced in Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, and Fiji in the past year, increasing the need to train qualified teachers to offer the Certificate Levels 2 and 4 in Resilience.
To cater for the needs of the region, developers of the qualification, the SPC Pacific Adaptation to Climate Change and Resilience Building (PACRES) project, in partnership with SPC Educational Quality and Assessment Programme, conducted Training of Trainers (ToT) in Fiji, Vanuatu, and Papua New Guinea.
