SIDS and the GEF: Three Decades of Environmental Leadership and Innovation

Multimedia
May 29, 2024

Small Island Developing States (SIDS) face unique challenges due to their size, remoteness, and vulnerability to climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. Yet, they consistently demonstrate a powerful commitment to environmental stewardship. Their innovative approaches and tireless advocacy serve as an inspiration for all nations. 

The GEF is proud to partner with SIDS governments, communities, and civil society organizations to support their environmental priorities. We recognize the vital role of SIDS in shaping a sustainable future for our planet.

This video was launched with an accompanying publication at a side event of the Fourth International Conference on Small Island Developing States (SIDS4).
