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

Small island countries are also big oceanic states, whose commitment and innovation have resulted in environmental benefits for the whole world.

This video - and a short 2 minute version - was launched with an accompanying publication at a side event of the Fourth International Conference on Small Island Developing States (SIDS4).
