The Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) is an intergovernmental organisation based in Apia, Samoa with more than 90 staff members.

The organisation actively promotes the understanding of the connection between Pacific island people and their natural environment and the impact that these have on their sustenance and livelihoods.

SPREP Members meet once every year to discuss the workplan and budget and other matters relating to administration and corporate affairs.

It achieved autonomy as an independent inter-governmental organisation with the signing of the Agreement Establishing SPREP in Apia on 16 June 1993.

SPREP's vision is: the Pacific environment - sustaining our livelihoods and natural heritage in harmony with our cultures.
