Summary | This document outlines a communication strategy for Fiji to manage marine invasive species using the PacMAN decision support tool. The strategy addresses the problem of increasing invasive species due to global trade and marine traffic, focusing on early detection and rapid response. Key Fijian government agencies (MECC, BAF, MSAF, FPCL) are identified as crucial implementers, with defined roles and communication pathways. The strategy details a workflow for alert dissemination, risk assessment, and management actions, emphasising coordination between national and international partners. Finally, it proposes using the tool as a national clearing house for marine invasive species data. |
