Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced a boost in funding for Pacific countries to help them adapt to climate change.
The New Zealand government is pledging $300 million in climate-related assistance over four years, an increase of $100 million.
The prime minister made the announcement in New York where she is attending for the United Nations General Assembly this week along with about 140 other world leaders.
The extra money will go to projects such as reducing the risk of coastal flooding in Tokelau, storing rainwater in Kiribati and strengthening water security across the region.
