Despite these challenges, the report reflects Samoa\u2019s resilience and leadership. Adaptation efforts continue across key sectors including agriculture, water, health, tourism, and biodiversity, with resilience integrated into national and community plans. Samoa also leads in gender-responsive climate governance, community-driven adaptation, and renewable energy transition, with renewable electricity generation surpassing 32% in 2023.\nDuring the official handover, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Lealaisalanoa Frances Brown Reupena, stated, \u201cthis communication not only report our realities but guide our ambition. Let it inform not only negotiators at COP summits but leaders and families across our island\u2026 may it (continue to) inspire all of us to move beyond commitments and into sustained action for a Samoa that not only survives climate change but leads with integrity in shaping global solutions\u201d. \nThe Government of Samoa acknowledges the support of the UNDP, the Global Environment Facility (GEF), and all national stakeholders, including ministries, civil society, the private sector, academia, and communities, whose collective contributions enabled the development of Samoa\u2019s First Biennial Update Report, Third National Greenhouse Gas Inventory, and the Climate Change and Gender Strategy.\nENDS[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
