©Juergen Freund/WWF South Pacific

1).Use appropriate forum to award local innovation in social enterprises and social movements (where some CSO innovation lie).

2). Convene a Pacific Business to Business summit to strengthen exchange, build partnerships as well as markets 3). PICs fast track establishment of ecological coherent representative networks of MPA across the Pacific, rooted in biological and social science 4). National Plans for growing the green economy is developed jointly at local, district and provincial levels - opportunity to input upwards and for local communities to understand how their local initiatives feed into green growth strategies 5). The partnership between Public Sector, Private Sector and Civil Society Sector to address Green Economy rules of engagement, must be inclusive and participatory, to allow the under-served groups ( people with disability, women and youth) to be active part of the process.”

6.2Recommendations

7). Identify green growth champions in community, business, NGO and governments who are benefiting from sustainable actions 8). As well supporting global standards, develop and or support the growth of standards locally and regionally that connect back to global standards to drive sustained market access and ecological sustainability (for example Marine Stewardship Council, Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Bonsucro and the Pacific Organic & Ethical Trade Community (POETCom)
