AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

EU-Food Safety for Tuna: Fiji, Kiribati, Solomon Islands and Tuvalu officials met in Suva for training on the EU’s Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/1449, aimed at tighter freezer-vessel requirements after EU auditors found tuna not consistently reaching -18°C in brine; the rules could affect about 97% of EU-listed Pacific freezer vessels, with warmer-freezing tuna limited to canneries and direct-consumption products needing colder thresholds to reduce scombroid poisoning risk. Health Tech Support: India marked FIPIC-III commitments by delivering a haemo-dialysis machine with a portable RO unit to Samoa, and previously shipped a 6-bedded container-based dialysis unit to Kiribati—moves that can help expand access to kidney care and safer water for treatment. Water Safety Watch: A new global assessment highlights how unsafe drinking water still drives major public health harm, pointing to countries where weak infrastructure and sanitation leave communities at high risk. Nutrition & Resilience via Agrifood Innovation: FAO-backed Samoa Agri-Innovate Competition 2026 showcased agribusiness ideas under the EU-funded STODAS project, linking innovation to improved nutrition, health, and climate resilience. Regional Health & Nutrition Focus: FAO’s virtual SIDS Solutions Forum opened with leaders discussing how digitalisation and innovation can strengthen resilient agri-food systems, improved nutrition and health, and climate adaptation. Climate Mobility and Health Risks: A report on Tuvalu’s Falepili Treaty highlights climate mobility as a growing reality, raising concerns that can affect health through loss of rights and support systems.
