Principles & Values: TRANSCEND OCEANIA is founded on the following principles and values. Our Principles: Human Rights – all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. JustPeace – is based on the notion that there can be no peace without justice. Social Justice – creating just conditions to help individuals develop fully their human potentials and dignity to work in harmony with others to fulfill their personal and social needs and work towards the common good of all regardless of the situations they are in. Gender Equality – that women and men have equal value and therefore must always be treated equally with respect. Integral Human Development - expanding the choices people have, to lead lives that they value, and improving the human condition and wellbeing so that people have the chance to lead full lives. Non Violence - a philosophy and strategy for social change that rejects the use of violence. It comes from the be- lief that you do not have to hurt people, animals or the environment to get what you want. Inclusivity & Participation – just and peaceful communities are created when people participate and are included in all decision making processes that affect their lives.

Congratulations to the KIWA Pacific CIRCLE Initiative on its official launch in Port Vila, Vanuatu!

Transcend Oceania is honoured to be part of this important regional partnership, bringing together Pacific organisations, governments, civil society, and development partners to strengthen community resilience through nature-based solutions and inclusive climate action.

As climate change continues to present unprecedented challenges across our Blue Pacific, the Pacific CIRCLE KIWA Initiative represents a powerful commitment to working together in ways that are locally led, culturally grounded, and community driven.

We congratulate the KIWA Initiative, the Government of Vanuatu, ActionAid Australia, SPREP, and all consortium partners on this significant milestone. We also acknowledge the dedication of the many community leaders, women, youth, persons with disabilities, and local organisations whose knowledge and leadership will be central to the success of this initiative.

At Transcend Oceania, we are proud to contribute our expertise in peacebuilding, conflict transformation, and community engagement, ensuring that climate resilience efforts also strengthen social cohesion, inclusion, and lasting peace across the Pacific.

Together, we are building stronger, safer, and more resilient Pacific communities.

Vinaka vakalevu and warm congratulations to everyone involved. We look forward to the journey ahead!

This is a stark reminder that GBV remains a real problem across the Pacific!

Stat of the week: In Samoa, 32% of women aged 15–49 who have ever been partnered reported experiencing physical, sexual or psychological violence from an intimate partner in the past 12 months.

This figure is a stark reminder that gender-based violence remains a major challenge across the Pacific, affecting the safety, dignity and wellbeing of women and girls. 💜

Marking International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women this week, let’s stand together to end violence against women and promote respect, equality and empowerment for all.
