In July SPREP signed a new Grant Funding Arrangement with the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade to provide further support to PRISMSS and PRISMSS activities in the region. The project PRISMSS-Restoring Island Resilience will take place up until mid-2026 and spend over NZD 20 million providing much needed human resources to both manage the PRISMSS and coordinate the PRISMSS programmes, develop further multi-country projects, continue with the mainstreaming activities and research initiatives, and invest in scaling up all five PRISMSS programmes across the region. The SPREP Invasive Species Adviser will continue to provide oversight and advice. We look forward to introducing you to the new team in 2024.

The PRISMSS team and partners have had a very busy start to 2023, with borders now open and allowing the delivery of in-country operational and technical support in the region. A one-week meeting was held at the PRISMSS headquarters at SPREP, Apia, which brought together the PRISMSS partners and affiliates to discuss key risks, issues, and opportunities for PRISMSS, and share an understanding of partners roles and responsibilities moving forward. With those matters being scrutinized, 2023 is already looking very exciting and we are looking forward to connecting again with the Battlers on the ground to address their priority needs in the invasive species management space.
