Showcase your innovation/technology for SIDS on the Nexus platform

Over 90% of Small Island Development (SIDS) are highly vulnerable to climate change impacts—including sea-level rise, extreme weather events, and freshwater scarcity—placing livelihoods and infrastructure at risk. Despite this, many SIDS lack access to affordable, adaptable technologies that could boost their resilience and sustainability.

According to UNEP’s Technology Needs Assessment, priority technology areas for Asia-Pacific SIDS include energy security, coastal protection, and sustainable agriculture

SIDS Innovation Factories (SIDSIF)

SIDSIF aims to connects Asian Pacific SIDS) with cutting-edge, affordable technologies to enhance climate resilience, energy independence, and sustainable economic growth. By building a global network of technology providers from Republic of Korea, Europe, Japan, China and beyond.

SIDSIF helps island communities implement practical, scalable solutions tailored to their unique environmental challenges. The initiative focuses on key areas such as clean energy, sustainable agriculture, water management, and the blue economy, creating pathways for SIDS to become hubs of climate innovation.
