What happened

The funds raised will finance practical improvements, including clean water supplies, sanitation facilities, and climate-resilient water systems in the three nations.

Why it matters
The initiative addresses the significant need for safe drinking water across the Pacific, particularly in remote areas. The support aims to help communities withstand the growing pressures of climate change, such as rising sea levels and extreme weather, which strain existing water supplies.
