The Pacific Roadmap for Economic Development (PRED)(formerly the Blue Pacific Economic Strategy) was approved by the Forum Economic Ministers' Meeting in August 2022, as part of the 2050 Blue Pacific Strategy. This Policy Brief proposes an annotated outline for the implementation of the PRED, with a focus on the measurement, assessment, and valuation of ecosystem goods and services.
