The WWF South Pacific Programme Office serves the eastern Melanesian Island countries as part of WWF's endeavour to work effectively and locally in the region.
The programme is managed from a regional base in Suva, Fiji and organises a strategic series of conservation field projects, policy reviews and campaigns. A local office has also been established in the Cook Islands.
As part of WWF's cohesive conservation effort in the region, it works closely with the Western Melanesian office located in Paua New Guinea.
