series: Point # 32

discusses the cultural and religious significance of the land to the people of the New Guinea Islands region of Papua New Guinea. When the land was alienated from the people by the colonialists and the Methodist missionaries more than a hundred years ago, little did they realise that their actions would come back to haunt the church and create relationship problems between the church and the people. The current land conflicts between the United Church and the community over ownership rights and user rights has its roots in the land dealings of the past between the missionaries and the ancestors of the islanders. The issue at stake is: when the land is taken away from the people, their identity and sense of belonging, their security and their whole livelihood, and survival come under real threat.

This book draws on Andrew Ladley’s field research and substantial practical experience on the ground on behalf of the United Nations and other organisations in the South Pacific and in a diverse group of developing countries around the world.

About one fifth of all politically independent countries are small island developing states. For these countries, sustainable development is not a matter of choice, it is imperative. Highly vulnerable due to their size and isolation, small states have had to pursue development paths that are economically, environmentally and socially sustainable. They also face particularly stark impacts from climate change. This book details experiences and lessons from small island developing states in their efforts to balance environment and development needs, and getting these to work in harmony.Above all the message of this book is that this process still has some way to go, but we have learned valuable lessons that will help to support integrated and participatory planning for sustainable development in the future. In five chapters the expert contributors discuss: existing national sustainable development ... more
