The Pacific Promise
This is the new narrative of the Pacific—a story of potential, promise, and power. It is not just about arriving on foreign shores; it is about thriving, leading, and shaping the very future we all share. It is about turning opportunity into outreach, knowledge into change, and inspiration into the courage to walk the paths less travelled.
For PCF, the commitment is to empower, to uplift, and to herald the Pacific as a powerhouse of ingenuity. Our scholars, our partners, and our collective future inspire us, and the world at large, to step into the dawn of a new era.
Preserving Banaban Heritage: A Story of Community & Resilience
PCF had the pleasure of hosting Rae Bainteiti from the Rabi Island Community Hub and Banaban Human Rights Defenders Network! Rae shared invaluable insights into the groundbreaking work he's spearheading, advocating for Banabans in Kiribati, Fiji, and across the wider Pacific region.
World Vision and UnionAid accompanied Rae on this visit and illuminated the challenges, triumphs, and ongoing efforts in championing human rights and fostering community resilience. How inspiring to see such dedication and passion in action!
Regional diplomacy triumphs: Kiribati’s reintegration into the Pacific Islands Forum
The Government of Kiribati formally reinstated its positive endorsement to rejoin the Pacific Islands Forum earlier in January this year.
President Taneti Maamau expressed their commitment to rejoining and remaining with the forum amidst growing geopolitical interest in the region.
In an exclusive interview with Pasifika TV, Maamau says they are happy to return to the forum and join their Pacific brothers in making the Pacific a great place to live and work.
