The Caritas State of the Environment for Oceania report monitors five environmental issues affecting the wellbeing of Oceania: extreme weather, rising seas and coastal erosion, access to safe local food and water, offshore mining and drilling, and climate finance. It provides valuable insights about the changing ecology of the region, and assessments of human contributions to, and responses to, these changes. The report is a collaborative project by Caritas Oceania, part of the Caritas Internationalis network of over 160 Catholic aid, development and social justice agencies, working to end poverty, promote justice and restore dignity to all.
