Pacific Languages & Stories: A new multilingual poetry anthology, The Ocean Remembers, puts Cook Islands Māori, Niuean, Sāmoan, Tongan and Solomon Islands Pijin at the centre, backed by Tala: Sharing Pacific Stories and featuring 29 contributors with mentoring through publication. Cyclone Wisdom in Fiji: A BBC Future feature highlights how Fijian farmers use Indigenous observations—like wild yam vine behaviour, plus insects and sea signs—to spot early cyclone warnings months ahead, as climate change makes storms more intense. Niue in the Spotlight: The anthology’s inclusion of Niuean language and storytelling is a direct win for Niue culture and identity in the wider Pacific literary scene. Tourism & Ocean Stewardship: The Pacific Tourism Organisation joined the Australia-Pacific Ocean Business Leaders Summit in Cairns, linking tourism to ocean protection, climate adaptation and sustainable development. Global Mobility (Noted): Pakistan’s passport climbed to 100th on the Henley index, with access to 30 destinations visa-free or via simpler entry routes.
