Our Pacific visionFuture ambition

A Pacific where nature can thrive again.

This page describes where we want to go, not what we have done yet. Everything here will be built with Pacific communities, led by them, and shaped by their knowledge.

A listening network for the Pacific

Every island, heard.

Hark units on each island listen for native birds and the predators that threaten them. Detections flow back as shared data, so island communities can see what is living on their land, act early and measure recovery for themselves.
