Stakeholders
The ultimate benefit of the Forum Secretariat’s activities is received by the People of the Pacific, particularly those of the Forum Island Countries. The Pacific Islands’ Forum Leaders and Members, as critical stakeholders, provide the Forum Secretariat with its direct mandate. Closer contacts between the Forum and non-sovereign Pacific Territories are by way of Associate Membership or Observer status to the Forum.

The Forum Secretariat is also reliant on key stakeholders such as other Regional Partner Organisations and Development Partners for their cooperation and means to deliver the Leaders’ mandate.

Finally, the Forum Secretariat informs and receives input from interested parties, such as non-governmental organisations, faith-based organisations, and other civil society organisations, collectively termed Non-state Actors.
