Business continuity plans and #insurance are very important for resilience of businesses. Often small businesses lack these putting great numbers of jobs at risk Patrick Suckling #COP23 Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade 🇦🇺

Collective action gives the private sector a voice and a seat at the table to work with the government, Fiji is a good example of that #COP23 FCEF FBDRC

The #FRDP creates a policy space for resilient development. But it will require a development first approach and a change in mindset Pacific Islands Forum Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade 🇦🇺 UNDP Climate UNDP Pacific Office in Fiji
