Cook Islands convened the first segment of its High-Level Political Talanoa this week in Rarotonga, as part of the third phase of the Review of the Regional Architecture (RRA). Framed by rich dialogue, the Talanoa reflected a strong commitment to assessing the current regional architecture and identifying both the challenges and emerging opportunities. Discussions centred on shaping a more streamlined, responsive, and member-driven regional system that delivers effectively on the priorities of the Blue Pacific. As part of this national engagement, the High-Level Persons Group will also meet with the Prime Minister of the Cook Islands, Hon Mark Brown, in the coming week.

Two of my favourite spaces where #PacificWomen leave no crumbs: global diplomacy, and reporting #CEDAW. When they come together, magic happens.
12 February: Ambassador DeBrum participated in a discussion with #CEDAW in Geneva, sharing the important role women play in decision making in political processes in the Marshall Islands.

Making Pacific history in the US today-- How much will these two powerhouses from Pagopago shape the future of US-Pacific relations? Congresswoman Uifa'atali Amata Radewagon and the newly-confirmed US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard are close friends who share three other common ties --US President Trump, #AmericanSamoa and village kinship. #WIP

There is a lot of misinformation and flamethrowing on the Cook Islands, passports and China. Reach for a glass of water, sit down, take a breath, and read what the 2001 agreement on the 1901 agreement confirmed about Cook Islands' sovereignty. #IYKYK bit.ly/4hU2aMZ

Cos sharing is caring and I have lost count of the convos with so many --especially women-- who need to feel safe and supported in stepping away from the B word.
Burnout isn't about hours worked. In fact, there are usually much deeper causes. Leaders should start to recognize when it's occurring, And take steps to help. Use this graphic to find causes of burnout in your organization.

There are many global spaces where a Pacific voice sensitive to all the big taboos, is respected and heard. This is one of them.
