Pitcairn Islands Environmental Management Plan
|
Client: UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office Pitcairn Island, a member of the Pitcairn Group, is located in the South Pacific Ocean. The island is remote, with a small population and a relatively underdeveloped infrastructure. The flora of Pitcairn is unique, with a number of endemic and endangered species. Challenges exist for nature conservation on the island, including invasive non-native species, soil erosion and infrastructural development issues. Careful environmental management is needed to ensure sustainable development. |

|
| The Pitcairn Islands Environmental Management Plan enables sustainable development to proceed alongside environmental protection and conservation of local natural resources. A framework is provided by which all activities that impinge on the environment can be regulated to the benefit of the people of Pitcairn Island and HM Government. |
