Towards the Realization and Action

Minister Flavien Joubert represented President Wavel Ramkalawan as the Chair of the Africa Island State Climate Commission (AISCC) in a virtual Ministerial Side Event on Tuesday 9th.

In his opening statement Minister Joubert stated that President Wavel Ramkalawan conveyed his best wishes to the members and assured continuous leadership and commitment to combat the climate crisis while protecting biodiversity to achieve sustainable development in Africa

He continued saying that the Africa Island States Climate Commission is a country partnership which promotes Africa Island States action for climate-resilient sustainable development to conserve biodiversity, enhance local livelihoods and economies for greater social and environmental security among coastal communities.

Minister Joubert highlighted that the overall objective of the members is to take effective ownership of their ocean spaces, by inspiring leadership and facilitating collaboration in mobilizing political, financial and technical commitments at national and regional levels in the Islands States of Africa

“To achieve the objectives thus assigned to the Commission, Seychelles will urgently establish an adequate governance framework with a realistic roadmap. This will accompany a Climate Investment Plan for the African Island countries for the period 2022-2032, with a Regional Priority Program for Emergencies 2022 -2025. Together with a strategy for mobilizing financial resources for the period (2022-2032) taking into account the priority financing needs for the period (2022-2025) reflecting the ambitions of the states and the joint support commitments of the African Island countries and partners. To this end, the search for strategic technical and financial partners such as international financing institutions (African Development Bank, World Bank, Green Climate Fund), the United Nations System (UNDP), or the European Union would be relevant” said Mr. Joubert

Seychelles seeks to achieve a substantial mitigation benefit, lowering the GHG emission to a level of 817 ktCO2eq by 2030, relatively to baseline emissions, as well as a lasting adaptation impact in terms of energy and water security for Seychelles and improved resilience across communities

Seychelles “Blue Economy” recognizes the centrality of marine and coastal ecosystems to sustainable development, resilience and human well-being, and is hence an integral part of the country’s climate adaptation response

Seychelles Blue Economy depends on ecosystems, natural capital and protected coastal assets, which are directly affected by climate change. Unsustainable use of natural systems in Seychelles enhances the impact of climate change.

Seychelles is well known for its pristine beaches,

Seychelles is well known for its pristine beaches, which are important for the tourism industry. The wide and slowly sloping beaches can reduce wave energy while healthy dune vegetation can create stability and coastal protection. However the degradation of coral reefs, sea level rise, storm surges, loss of coastal vegetation and poorly conceived coastal development have contributed to the erosion of Seychelles Beaches.

The Seychelles Coastal Management Plan (2019-2024) is the country's main adaptation strategy against coastal erosion. It focuses on the 3 main island and emphasizes in nature-based and hybrid engineering solutions to restore the coral reef, wetlands, beaches and dunes.
