پئسفڪ ڪميونٽي (Pacific Community)، جيڪو اڳ ۾ سائوٿ پئسفڪ ڪميشن (SPC) هو، هڪ بين الاقوامي ترقياتي تنظيم آهي جيڪا 27 ميمبرن جي نگراني ۾ آهي، جنهن ۾ 22 پئسفڪ ٻيٽ ملڪ ۽ پئسفڪ سمنڊ جي چوڌاري علائقا شامل آهن. تنظيم جو هيڊ ڪوارٽر نوميا، نيو ڪيليڊونيا ۾ آهي، ۽ ان جا علائقائي آفيس سووا، پونپي ۽ پورٽ ويلا ۾ آهن، انهي سان گڏ پئسفڪ جي ٻين هنڌن تي فيلڊ اسٽاف پڻ آهن.[1] ان جون ڪم ڪندڙ ٻوليون انگريزي ۽ فرانسيسي آهن. اها بنيادي طور تي ٽيڪنيڪل ۽ سائنسي صلاح فراهم ڪري ٿي ۽ عطيو ڏيندڙ قومن کان ترقياتي منصوبن جي فنڊنگ لاءِ هڪ آئوٽ ليٽ طور ڪم ڪري ٿي.[2] ٿوري ننڍڙي پئسفڪ ٻيٽن جي فورم جي برعڪس، پئسيفڪ ڪميونٽي هڪ واپاري بلاڪ ناهي ۽ فوجي يا سيڪيورٽي مسئلن سان معاملو نٿو ڪري.

پئسفڪ ڪميونٽي جي علائقائي ترقي جي مسئلن ۾ موسمياتي تبديلي، آفت ۾ خطري جو انتظام، ماهيگيري، فوڊ سيفٽي، کاڌي جي حفاظت، تعليم، صنفي برابري، انساني حق، غير متعدي بيماريون، زراعت، ٻيلا ۽ زمين جو استعمال، پاڻي جا وسيلا ۽ نوجوانن جي روزگار شامل آهن.[3]

تاريخ

[سنواريو]

پئسيفڪ ڪميونٽي 6 فيبروري 1947ع تي،[4] ڏکڻ پئسفڪ ڪميشن (SPC) جي طور تي، علائقي ۾ اسٽريٽجڪ مفادن ۽ علائقن سان ڇهن ترقي يافته ملڪن: آسٽريليا، فرانس، هالينڊ، نيوزي لينڊ، برطانيه، ۽ آمريڪا پاران قائم ڪئي وئي هئي.[5]

ڏکڻ پئسفڪ ڪميشن جو باني چارٽر ڪينبرا معاهدو آهي.[6] ٻي عالمي جنگ کان پوءِ، ڇهن نوآبادياتي طاقتون، جنهن ڪميشن ٺاهي هيون، انهن جو مقصد جنگ کان پوءِ پئسفڪ ۾ مغربي سياسي ۽ فوجي مفادن کي محفوظ بڻائڻ هو. ٻه باني ميمبر (هالينڊ ۽ برطانيه) ان کان پوءِ ڪميشن کان دستبردار ٿي ويا آهن، ڇاڪاڻ ته انهن جي ڪنٽرول ۾ پئسفڪ علائقا يا ته آزادي حاصل ڪئي يا تنظيم ۾ پاڻ کي نمائندگي ڪرڻ جو حق حاصل ڪيو.[7][8]

شروع کان وٺي، ڪميشن جو ڪردار محدود هو. آسٽريليا ۽ نيوزي لينڊ کان آمريڪا، فرانس، هالينڊ ۽ برطانيه کي 1947ع ۾ ڏکڻ سمنڊ ڪميشن ڪانفرنس ۾ حصو وٺڻ جي دعوت ۾ اهو بيان شامل هو ته؛

"ڏکڻ پئسفڪ ڪميشن قائم ٿيڻ کي سياسي معاملن يا دفاع يا سيڪيورٽي جي سوالن سان ڪنهن به طرح سان معاملو ڪرڻ جو اختيار نه هجڻ گهرجي". [9]

بحث تي هي پابندي (خاص طور تي علائقي ۾ ايٽمي هٿيارن جي جاچ تي بحث ڪرڻ تي پابندي) 1971ع ۾ ڏکڻ پئسفڪ فورم (هاڻي پئسفڪ ٻيٽ فورم) جي قيام جو سبب بڻي، جنهن نه رڳو فرانس، برطانيه ۽ آمريڪا جي وڌيڪ پري طاقتن کي، پر ان وقت انهن جي پئسفڪ ٻيٽ علائقن کي پڻ خارج ڪيو.

سال 1949ع ۾، پئسفڪ ڪميونٽي پنهنجو مستقل هيڊڪوارٽر نوميا، نيو ڪيليڊونيا ۾. هڪ اڳوڻي آمريڪي فوجي اڏي تي قائم ڪيو. سال 1995ع ۾ ساڳئي هنڌ جي ويجهو هڪ نئون هيڊ ڪوارٽر تعمير ڪيو ويو ۽ فوجي اڏي کي ڊاهي ڇڏيو.[10] ڏکڻ پئسفڪ فورم جي اصل هيڊ ڪوارٽر جي جڳهه جي ياد ۾ هڪ يادگار ۽ تختي انسي واٽا ۾ لي پرومينيڊ ڪمپليڪس جي سائيٽ تي ملي سگهي ٿي.[11]

سال 1962ع ۾، پئسفڪ ڪميونٽي هڪ باقاعده پئسفڪ وسيع راندين جي تقريب منعقد ڪرڻ جي مقصد سان ڏکڻ پئسفڪ گيمز ڪائونسل ٺاهي. پهرين گيمز رانديون 1963ع ۾ سووا، فجي ۾ منعقد ڪيون ويون، جنهن ۾ 13 پئسفڪ علائقن مان 646 شرڪت ڪندڙن حصو ورتو. شروعات ۾ رانديون ٽن سالن جي وقفي تي منعقد ڪيون ويون، جيتوڻيڪ بعد ۾ گوام ۾ ٽومون راندين کان پوءِ ان کي چار تائين وڌايو ويو.

Dutch New Guinea, formerly represented in the SPC by the Netherlands, was transferred to United Nations authority in 1962 and to Indonesia the following year. Without any territory remaining in the region, the Netherlands withdrew from the SPC in 1962.[12][13]

Governance of the SPC reflected the changing political environment. At inception, each member had equal representation and a single vote. When Western Samoa joined as newly independent state in 1965 the rules were changed to ensure that the Western foundation nations would maintain firm control over the organization. Australia was given five votes, France, Britain, New Zealand, and the United States four and Western Samoa just one.[14]

In 1972, the first South Pacific Arts Festival was convened by SPC in Suva, Fiji. The event drew more than 1000 participants from 14 countries. In 1975 SPC created a Council of Pacific Arts, permanently making culture issues a part of the SPC mandate and establishing the Festival of Pacific Arts as a regular event.[15]

In response to demand to rapid development of the Pacific regions media industry, SPC established a Regional Media Center in 1973 in collaboration with the recently created University of the South Pacific. The center produced audio material for the regions radio stations and provided training in video production.

With decolonization efforts expanding, newly independent states and nonindependent territories were also allowed to apply for membership. "As its membership grew, the character and scope of the SPC evolved to incorporate the indigenous peoples of the Pacific."[16]

In 1983, at the Saipan Conference, unequal voting was abandoned, once again establishing a "one member, one vote" principle for SPC.[17] However, this decision did not come without criticism as some pointed out that the combination of allowing membership to non-independent territories and establishing a one-vote per member principle effectively provided additional votes to France and the United States who continued to maintain control over Pacific territories. It was also during the Saipan Conference that the Committee of Representatives of Governments and Administrations (CRGA) was established, creating the only Pacific regional organization that was both fully representative of the Pacific, and fully governed by its membership.[18]

In 1988, the SPC become a founding member of the Council of Regional Organisations in the Pacific or CROP (formerly the South Pacific Organisations Coordinating Committee, SPOCC) "to improve cooperation, coordination, and collaboration among the various intergovernmental regional organisations to work toward achieving the common goal of sustainable development in the Pacific region".[19]

The United Kingdom withdrew from the organisation in 1996 and rejoined in 1998.[20] The UK withdrew a second time in 2004[مئل ڳنڍڻو]. The UK's interests in the Pacific Community were prior to Brexit primarily managed through the European Union, although the UK also is a direct donor for some projects.[اپڊيٽ گھربل آھي] The UK rejoined in 2021 after reopening its high commissions in Tonga, Samoa and Vanuatu.[21]

In 1996, the Pacific Heads of Agriculture and Livestock Programmes asked "to put in place, both in their countries and through regional cooperation, policies to conserve, protect and best utilize their plant genetic resources".[22] As these resources were considered a shared regional responsibility, it made sense for a regional organization to respond to this need. SPC established the Regional Germplasm Centre (RGC) in 1998. The facility grew rapidly and in 2007 was renamed Centre for Pacific Crops and Trees (CePaCT). It currently holds more than 2000 varieties of genetic material on Pacific strains of taro, banana, breadfruit and others, and has been instrumental in helping to rebuild island agriculture after disasters.[23]

In 2000, SPC became the first CROP organization to be headed by a woman, Lourdes Pangelinan of Guam, who served in the role from 2000 to 2006.

Pacific Way television series

[سنواريو]

The SPC began producing a television program, known as The Pacific Way, in 1995. Supported by UNESCO as a trial for exchanging news stories, the first season was shared freely with just one tape circulated between TV stations in several Pacific Island nations. The programs' regional and local focus made it popular addition to local television schedules and at its height was producing and distributing 26 annual episodes to 21 TV stations around the region. Since 2017, the Pacific Way has been developing 10 episodes per season for television and has been reintroduced to radio through its complementary podcasts. The half-hour show shares development stories about the Pacific for the Pacific. It covers important topics and key issues, such as climate change adaptation, health, youth employment, innovation in agriculture, fisheries management and the protection of cultural heritage.

[سنواريو]

While the acronym "SPC" has been consistent since the organization's founding in 1947, the name and logo have evolved over the years. The organization's original name was the South Pacific Commission, which represented the limited nature of its membership and activities. The name was changed in 1997 to the Pacific Community, reflecting the growth of membership across the entire Pacific region. The current logo was officially adopted in 2015.

The SPC is concentrated on providing technical and scientific advice to its member governments and administrations, particularly in areas where small island states lack the wherewithal to maintain purely national cadres of expertise, or in areas where regional co-operation or interaction is necessary.

The operational budget of the Pacific Community in 2018 was approximately €82 million.[1] The organization is financially supported through a combination of membership fees and donor funding. Its major funding partners include the European Union, the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the governments of France and the United States. Additional funding and knowledge partners include:[2]

Divisions

[سنواريو]

The SPC works across more than 25 sectors. It is involved in such areas as fisheries science, public health surveillance, geoscience and conservation of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture, statistics and education. Using a multi-sector approach in responding to its members' development priorities, SPC draws on skills and capabilities from around the region and internationally, and supports the empowerment of Pacific communities and sharing of expertise and skills between countries and territories.[3]

SPC currently has nine divisions:[4]
