Project Overview and Key Activities

New international norms, policies and processes are vital for small island developing states (SIDS) to achieve sustained, resilient and equitable development. In the context of contemporary global economic restructuring, post-pandemic recovery and accelerating climate change, good domestic governance alone is not enough.

RESI is a global advisory network based at ODI, that works with SIDS and their partners to frame policy problems, influence reform of the international governance architecture, and find solutions to growing sustainability challenges.

RESI connects:

• the research community: researchers, research institutes and consultants working on small-island issues,
• the donor and international organisation community: international organisations and their SIDS units, and
• the island community: island governments, businesses and NGOs. Our collaborative work programmes focus on research and synthesis, awareness-raising and advocacy, brokerage and networking, education and training, and evaluation and validation.

By doing so, we will improve the conditions under which SIDS can achieve:

• financial stability,
• environmental justice,
• healthy societies, and
• intergovernmental cooperation, in ways that contribute to more equitable forms of resilience-building.
