Priority activities during the visit included: conducting training courses in fish handling and processing at newly opened fish markets in Port Vila and Luganville, vertical longlining trials around FADs, and training in deep-bottom droplining techniques at outlying districts in conjunction with the establishment of artisanal village fishing projects. Other activities included FAD-associated and open- water trolling, experimental trials in gill-netting around FADs, and mid-water shark fishing. The Project operated at Port Vila (Efate), Lamen Bay (Epi), Tahi (Paama), Luganville, Hog Harbour and Port Olry (Espiritu Santo), Atchin Island (Malekula) and again at Port Vila. During the 22 weeks of the visit, 56 fishing trips were completed for a total catch of 8354.4 kg. All fish were gilled and gutted before landing, with an estimated average weight loss of 25 per cent from whole weight, while sharks were dressed (gutted, head and fins removed) with an estimated weight loss of 50 per cent. The various fishing techniques contributed to the catch as follows (in whole weight): - deep-bottom droplining – 3,806.0 kg in 39 trips totalling 461.5 fishing hours for a catch rate of 8.2 kg/reel hour; - FAD-associated trolling – 2,135.7 kg in 35 trips totalling 237.5 fishing hours; - open-water trolling – 537.0 kg in 52 trips totalling 155.4 fishing hours; - vertical longlining – 455.1 kg in 14 trips totalling 74 fishing hours; - and gill-netting, mid-water shark fishing and bait-trapping contributed – 1,420.6 kg. A total of 48 individuals participated in training sessions mostly conducted at village locations in at least one fishing method, or in fish handling and processing. In support of the Vanuatu Government's Village Fisheries Development Project the Masterfisherman surveyed potential deep-bottom fishing sites and made an assessment of deep-bottom resources at all six village locations visited. He also investigated the commercial viability of these projects and evaluated the suitability of the vessels currently in use in this fishery. The Masterfisherman also advised on aspects of fish marketing and presentation, and prepared recommendations for the Department of Fisheries in regard to the local FAD programme and the Village Fisheries Development Project. It was concluded that the areas in the north and central districts visited did hold commercially exploitable deep-bottom resources; that the village projects were likely to remain commercially viable in the near future; that the vessels in use were adequate, though not entirely suited to the fishery; that FAD-associated trolling and vertical longlining showed promise and were worthy of further development, in conjunction with an on-going FAD deployment programme; and that improved shipping and handling procedures would be necessary to ensure the commercial success of the newly established fish markets. It was cautioned that deep-bottom catch rates might decline under increased fishing pressure, with a possible change in species composition, and that the rapid expansion of the Village Fisheries Development Project might strain or outstrip the level of support available. v RÉSUMÉ Sous la direction du maître de pêche de la CPS, Lindsay Chapman, les responsables du projet de développement de la pêche au demi-large de la Commission du Pacifique Sud ont séjourné pour la troisième fois à Vanuatu, entre le 10 janvier et le 12 juillet 1983 − avec une interruption d'environ un mois entre début avril et début mai. Au nombre des activités prioritaires conduites lors de cette mission, on peut citer des cours de formation en manipulation et en transformation sur les marchés aux poissons récemment ouverts de Port-Vila et de Luganville, des essais de pêche à la palangre verticale autour des DCP et la formation aux techniques de pêche à la palangre par de grandes profondeurs, dans des régions reculées, parallèlement à la création de projets de pêche artisanale en milieu villageois. Parmi les autres activités entreprises, il y a lieu de citer la pêche à la traîne à proximité des DCP et en pleine eau, des essais de pêche au filet maillant autour des DCP et la pêche des requins entre deux eaux. Les activités ont été conduites à Port-Vila (Efate), à Lamen Bay (Epi), à Tahi (Paama), à Luganville, à Hog Harbour et à Port Olry (Espiritu Santo), à Atchin Island (Malicolo) et à nouveau à Port-Vila. Lors de cette mission d'une durée de 22 semaines, 56 sorties ont été effectuées pour un volume total de prises de 8 354,4 kg. Tous les poissons ont été vidés et éviscérés avant leur débarquement, ce qui représente une perte de poids moyenne estimée à 25 pour cent du poids total, tandis que les requins ont été apprêtés (c'est-à-dire éviscérés, ététés et les nageoires coupées), ce qui représente une perte de poids estimée à 50 pour cent. Les diverses techniques de pêche ont permis d'obtenir les résultats suivants (prises en poids entier) : − pêche de grand fond à la palangrotte : 3 806 kg en 39 sorties pour un total de 461,5 heures de pêche, soit un taux de prise de 8,2 kg/heure moulinet; − pêche à la traîne autour des DCP : 2 135,7 kg en 35 sorties pour un total de 237,5 heures de pêche; − traîne en pleine eau : 537 kg en 52 sorties pour un total de 155,4 heures de pêche; − pêche à la palangre verticale : 451,1 kg en 14 sorties pour un total de 74 heures de pêche; − pêche au filet maillant, pêche du requin entre deux eaux et pêche de l'appât : 1 420,6 kg. En tout, 48 personnes ont participé aux séances de formation à une méthode de pêche au moins ou à la manipulation et à la transformation du poisson; ces actions se sont surtout déroulées dans les villages. À l'appui du projet de développement de la pêche en milieu villageois mis en place par le gouvernement de Vanuatu, le maître de pêche a étudié des sites potentiels de pêche par grands fonds et il a procédé à une évaluation des ressources halieutiques de grand fond dans les six villages visités. Il a également étudié la rentabilité de ces projets et il a vérifié dans quelle mesure les navires actuellement en service étaient adaptés au type de pêche pratiquée. Le maître de pêche a également donné des conseils aux stagiaires sur la commercialisation et la présentation du poisson et il a préparé, à l'intention du service des pêches, des recommandations sur le programme local de DCP et sur le projet de développement de la pêche en milieu villageois. De cette mission, il ressort que : i) les zones septentrionnale et centrale disposent de ressources halieutiques de grand fond commercialement exploitables, ii) les projets villageois devraient rester rentables dans un proche avenir, iii) les navires employés sont acceptables, quoiqu'ils ne soient pas tout à fait adaptés à la pêche profonde et à la pêche du thon, iv) la pêche à la traîne autour des DCP et la pêche à la palangre verticale sont prometteuses et méritent d'être perfectionnées parallèlement au programme de mouillage de DCP en cours, et v) une amélioration des procédures de transport et de manipulation s'impose pour garantir le succès commercial des marchés de poissons qui viennent d'être mis en place. vi Le maître de pêche a formulé deux mises en garde : i) les taux de prises de poissons de grands fonds risquent de baisser en cas d'intensification de la pêche, ce qui pourrait modifier la composition par espèces, et ii) l'expansion rapide du projet de développement de la pêche en milieu villageois pourrait absorber une grande partie, voire la totalité, de l'aide disponible. vii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The South Pacific Commission acknowledges with gratitude the friendly support and assistance afforded the Masterfisherman by the groups and individuals associated with the Deep Sea Fisheries Development Project while in Vanuatu. The following individuals are deserving of special thanks: Jim Crossland, Director of Fisheries for his assistance in setting up and implementing the Project programme; Canadian volunteers Maurice Theriault, Dayle Blackburn, Peter Watt, Neil and Joan Crysler, and Wayne Howell, for assistance in the field, providing accommodation and organising village groups to fish with the Project.

Introduction The Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) several years ago identified the mismanagement of hazardous chemicals in the Pacific Island Countries as a serious environmental concern, and hence the Persistent Organic Pollutants in Pacific Island Countries (POPs in PICs) project was developed as an AusAID funded initiative, to be carried out by SPREP. POPs are a group of twelve particularly hazardous chemicals that have been singled out by the recent Stockholm Convention for urgent action to eliminate them from the world. They include polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which are mainly found in transformers, and several pesticides that are very persistent and toxic to the environment. Phase I of the project involved predominantly an assessment of stockpiles of waste and obsolete chemicals and identification of contaminated sites, for 13 Pacific Island Countries. Other Phase I activities included education and awareness programmes in each country and a review of relevant legislation. Vanuatu was a participant in Phase I of this work. A comprehensive report of this Phase I work was prepared and circulated, and significant quantities of hazardous wastes were identified in the countries visited, including estimated figures of 130 tonnes of PCB liquids and 60 tonnes of pesticides (although only about 3 tonnes of POPs pesticides).

  • Archipelago of Adventure: a Study of Tourism in Small Islands by Prof
    Archipelago of Adventure: A Study of Tourism in Small Islands By Prof. Donna Heddle and Dr Alex Sanmark. In the spring of 2017, the Institute for Northern Studies, University of the Highlands and Islands, gained funding from the Global Challenges Research Fund for a research project on sustainable tourism in the island nation of Vanuatu in Melanesia. The Institute has a strong profile in tourism, especially island tourism. A range of training programmes for tourist guides are offered and the Institute also runs an MLitt Programme in Island Studies, partly focusing on management and development of tourism. It was on this basis that the Vanuatu research project was developed. Vanuatu is a small developing country, which despite some economic difficulties, has managed to put in place a strategy which has resulted in an emerging, if not yet fully robust, tourism industry. The aim of our research project was to evaluate the Vanuatu tourism industry, in particular to examine the methods by which they have achieved its current level of tourism offer, and see what improvements could be sug- gested. The Vanuatu Department of Tourism. The major part of the work was carried out during a twelve-day visit to Vanuatu by Prof. Donna Hed- dle and Dr Alex Sanmark in May 2017. During this time, we visited three different islands, all of which are key tourist destinations: Efate where the capi- tal Port Vila is located, Espiritu Santo in the north and Tanna in the south. In all three locations, we conducted in-depth workshop meetings with stakeholders including both government repre- sentatives and tourism practitioners.

  • November 2016
    22 SPC Traditional Marine Resource Management and Knowledge Information Bulletin #37 – November 2016 What influences the form that community-based fisheries management takes in Vanuatu? Rolenas Baereleo Tavue,1,2 Pita Neihapi,1,2 Philippa Jane Cohen,3,4 Jason Raubani,2 Ian Bertram1 Abstract Vanuatu has a long history of efforts to manage coastal fisheries, from customary practices to various forms of contemporary community-based fisheries management (CBFM) promoted by non-governmental organi- sations and government projects. In this article we summarise how the experiences and lessons over the last 25 years have shaped the CBFM model Vanuatu now uses. The process of CBFM with communities commences with a diagnosis across four pillars: environment and resources, economy and production, socioculture, and institutions and governance. Activities and management measures are then designed with communities and with consideration to these four pillars. Management arrangements are recorded in written management plans, and at this stage formal links are made with the national government through nominated wardens and monitoring activities. The strength of the CBFM model is that it can adapt to differ- ent contexts and so differs among provinces and communities. We illustrate these differences in experiences in three islands in Vanuatu. These three islands were provided with support through an Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research-funded project that was delivered by the Vanuatu Fisheries Depart- ment, the Pacific Community and WorldFish. Long, consultative processes arrived at agreed on manage- ment plans in some sites, whereas in others there were external shocks that meant CBFM was not achieved despite the processes we followed.

  • 3. Quaternary Vertical Tectonics of the Central New Hebrides Island Arc1
    Collot, J.-Y., Greene, H. G., Stokking, L. B., et al., 1992 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Initial Reports, Vol. 134 3. QUATERNARY VERTICAL TECTONICS OF THE CENTRAL NEW HEBRIDES ISLAND ARC1 Frederick W. Taylor2 ABSTRACT Hundreds of meters of uplift of both the frontal arc and backarc characterize the late Quaternary vertical tectonic history of the central New Hebrides Island Arc. This vertical deformation is directly related to large, shallow earthquakes on the interplate thrust zone postulated on the basis of coral emergence data. This chapter presents evidence from the best documented and illustrated examples of uplifted coral reefs from the central New Hebrides Island Arc for the pattern and rates of vertical deformation caused by subduction of the d'Entrecasteaux Zone and the West Torres Massif over the past few 100 k.y. The pattern of vertical movement based on upper Quaternary coral reef terraces documents that the islands of Espiritu Santo, Malakula, Pentecost, and Maewo have risen hundreds of meters during the late Quaternary. This history suggests that the present pattern and rates of vertical deformation should be extrapolated back to at least 1 Ma, which would indicate that the total amount of structural and morphological modification of the arc during the present phase of deformation is more significant than previously assumed. The morphology of the central New Hebrides Island Arc may have resembled a more typical arc-trench area only 1-2 Ma. If the late Quaternary patterns and rates of vertical deformation have affected the central New Hebrides Island Arc since 1-2 Ma, then virtually all of the anomalous morphology that characterizes the central New Hebrides Island Arc can be attributed to the subduction of the d'Entrecasteaux Zone and the West Torres Massif.

    ISSUES IN PACIFIC DEVELOPMENT No. 2 | June 2018 TOURISM AS A DRIVER OF GROWTH IN THE PACIFIC A PATHWAY TO GROWTH AND PROSPERITY FOR PACIFIC ISLAND COUNTRIES Hayden Everett, Dain Simpson, and Scott Wayne KEY FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Tourism to the Pacific is increasing and will be a key driver of economic growth in the coming decade. Yet despite more visitors to the Pacific, tourism growth is not inevitable for all countries in the region. This brief identifies the trends driving this increase. To secure and sustainably harness the benefits of this growth, this brief recommends that Pacific island countries create an enabling environment for tourism through interventions in four areas: tourism policy, strategy, and the regulatory environment; infrastructure; human resources; and product development and marketing. TOURISM IN THE PACIFIC International arrivals to six Pacific countries* grew almost 50% between 2005 and 2015, with the growth in arrivals expected to accelerate in the decade to follow ? , , , *Cook Islands, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu The sustainability of Pacific tourism is dependent on national investments to protect the “triple bottom line of sustainability”: ­­ ­ NATIONAL LENDING BANK INVESTMENT CENTRE Opportunities for regional cooperation include: ­­ *Cook Islands, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu 2 TOURISM AS A DRIVER OF GROWTH | A pathway to growth and prosperity for Pacific island countries CONTENTS 5 Introduction 8 Tourism Growth Drivers and Prospects 8 Demand 8 Supply 11 Making Tourism Work 12 Tourism Policy, Regulatory Environment, and Strategy 13 Infrastructure 15 Human Resources 17 Marketing and Product Development 17 Waterfront Developments 19 Private Sector Participation and Public-Private Partnerships 20 The Way Forward AUTHORS: HAYDEN EVERETT is a Senior Country Specialist with ADB’s Pacific Liaison and Coordination Office in Sydney, Australia.
