SPREP is a regional organisation established by the governments and administrations of the Pacific region to look after its environment.

It is based in Apia, Samoa, with over 70 staff.
SPREP’s mandate is to promote cooperation in the Pacific islands region and to provide assistance in order to protect and improve the environment and to ensure sustainable development for present and future generations.
SPREP’s unique focus is to sustain the integrity of the ecosystems of the Pacific islands region to support life and livelihoods today and tomorrow.
