Explain Pacific regional institutions and climate-finance mechanisms, with careful distinctions between political commitments, treaty status, pledged capital, paid-in contributions, grant approvals and community-level results. Coverage is presented with pacific-aware, evidence-led and attentive to local ownership; precise about financing stages and careful not to treat regional diversity as a single viewpoint.
