The frequency and intensity of natural disasters in the Pacific are increasing. In addition to the significant risks to property and people directly caused by disasters, these events can generate a significant amount of waste which in turn can impact the health, the economy and, or the environment.

To discuss how Pacific Islands have coped with managing disaster waste through lessons-learnt and experiences, SPREP, through the AFD-funded SWAP project, the JICA-funded J-PRISM II project and the EU-funded PacWaste Plus Programme, will be conducting a Virtual Workshop on Disaster Waste Management “Knowledge sharing from the Pacific islands”.
