Hungry for justice, thirsty for change - Caritas State of the Environment Report for Oceania 2016

Abstract

In 2014, Caritas Aotearoa New Zealand produced our foundational environmental report on issues affecting communities in Oceania. Small yet strong: Voices from Oceania on the environment drew on interviews with groups from our Caritas and Catholic networks to paint a picture of environmental changes and issues impacting the lives of people throughout the Pacific. From this initial work, we identified five issues we will follow over future years. We will report on those issues in an annual State of the environment in Oceania report on St Francis’ Day each year.
