Day 1 at the Pacific Innovation Forum on Climate and Environment in Vanuatu! 🇻🇺

Our team proudly presented our East Palo Alto Rain Garden Project, a community-driven initiative that has partnered with 25 homeowners to install 25 rain gardens, investing more than $1 million into the community while helping build climate resilience.

One of the highlights of the day was connecting with inspiring leaders, innovators, and organizations from across the Pacific who are developing creative solutions to address the region's unique climate and environmental challenges. The exchange of ideas and experiences has been incredibly valuable to our team, and we're excited to continue learning and collaborating throughout the week! 🌱

We're grateful to be part of this important conversation and look forward to what the rest of the forum has in store!

Thank you to the Government of Vanuatu, the Ministry of Climate Change, SPREP, the Pacific Climate Change Centre, and V-Lab for putting together this wonderful forum.
