This publication is a companion piece to Island Innovations—UNDP and GEF: Leveraging Environment and Energy

It is primarily concerned with the role that conventional economic issues plays in the viability of natural resource and environmental projects in the Pacific. As the success of projects also depends on relevant scientific knowledge and appropriateness of an activity, it is assumed in this book that this knowledge and know-how is already available.
