About Us

The Pacific Community (SPC) is the principal scientific and technical organisation in the Pacific region, proudly supporting development since 1947. We are an international development organisation owned and governed by our 27 country and territory members.

 

The Pacific Community supports sustainable development by applying a people-centred approach to science, research and technology across all of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We serve our members by interweaving and harnessing the nexus of climate, ocean, land, culture, rights and good governance; through trusted partnerships; investing in Pacific people; and understanding Pacific contexts.

The Pacific Community contributes to four development goals for a unified, safe, just, equitable and resilient Blue Pacific. It is cognisant of the science, data and digital assets, statistics and analytics that connect to the strategy and provide the evidence to underpin products and services for the region. These goals are further shaped by the transformations required for institutional effectiveness and good governance of SPC’s regional commitments, members’ national priorities and global commitments.
