#SIDSSpotlight #Mauritius Out of the 322 km of coastline of Mauritius, 17% has been eroded. The country is committed to rehabilitation, and #mangrove restoration is a key solution. In June 1995, the mangrove propagation programme began, with at least 3-fold propagation to date!

Antigua and Barbuda’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Tumasie Blair makes an excellent point. It can not and should not be merely about responding to external shocks. For SIDS, we need a clear path to a resilient and prosperous future. #SIDS4🇦🇬

#SIDSSpotlight Small island developing states such as #Mauritius are advancing their own solutions for resilience. As the time nears to create a new #SIDS #sustainabledevelopment plan & address #climatecrisis at #SIDS4, let us increase collaboration so no one is left behind!

‼️ We must fix debt challenges in SIDS before they become debt crises. SIDS debt rose from 42.3% of GDP in 2000 to ≈ 60% of GDP in 2022. Challenges worsen for countries most vulnerable to climate shocks. High recovery cost➡️ debt vulnerability. READ: aosis.org/debt-sustainab…

The World has failed & is failing to deliver climate & financial justice to #SIDS4. The reality is that we have the tools, tech & finance to make things right, but it'll require huge amount of political will from those that have the responsibility & capacity to make a difference.
