HiThe Development Resource Centre has recently published the "Pacific Development Directory" of development-related organisations in the Pacific. The aim of the directory is to improve regional communications, assist development initiatives and help with the allocation of development resources.
There is both a hard copy and an Internet version. On the Internet you can search the database through a World Wide Web page (http://www.drc.org.nz) and by email. The Internet is updated at regular intervals and the hard copy biennially.
You can subscribe to the directory online or request a hard copy and internet order form from the DRC at the address below.
The Directory includes: Government departments, academic/research institutions, development banks, NGOs, development consultants, and international funding agencies.
In the following countries: American Samoa, Australia*, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, French Polynesia, Guam, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, New Caledonia, New Zealand*, Niue, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Wallis and Futuna.
