  1. “Chile trusts that this open debate will help to foster realism and awareness within groups of countries and regions. Collective inclusive action is essential in order to promote basically preventive measures. We therefore welcome the concerns raised today in the Council concerning SIDS, which confirm the relevance of South-South cooperation that we are undertaking with the CARICOM. countries.”

  2. “Inclusive development in our societies can play a fundamental role in ensuring the political stability, democratic governance, development and territorial integrity in our States, which are factors that effectively prevent conflict. We welcome this opportunity to discuss these issues in the Security Council and to emphasize, from an eminently political perspective, the importance for the sustainability of the planet of achieving an agreement at the COP 21 in Paris. At the Climate Summit held in New York in September 2014, President Michelle Bachelet noted that climate change exacerbates inequalities and multiplies threats to global peace and security. We must therefore tackle this problem before its consequence become irreversible.”

  3. “Global governance must incorporate ways of protecting these vulnerabilities of SIDS. These issues are the focus ofthe Council's special attention for the first time today, and we therefore congratulate New Zealand for this initiative. They are regularly considered in various forums, but they cannot be ignored by the Council. Chile is willing to contribute in this area. In early October, we will host the second Our Ocean conference, an initiative aimed at adopting voluntary commitments on the three serious threats to our ocean. Illegal fishing is one of the principle factors affecting any project or planning of sustainable fishing; marine pollution from plastic products has become a global problem; and the acidification of the ocean and its relation to climate change make it urgent for us to adopt collective action.”

  4. “But there are also global activities leading in that direction. We are all aware of the threat posed by climate change and of the urgent need to reach a comprehensive and efficient agreement at the forthcoming Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 21) in Paris. That is particularly important for small island countries, which are particularly exposed to the impacts of climate change and cycles of natural disasters. Attention must be paid to their impact on cultures and forms of life and to the possible creation of such destabilizing phenomena as forced displacement. The exploitation and illegal trafficking of natural resources, including illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, create a climate of instability by preventing access to basic livelihoods.”

  5. “The goal of the second, more inclusive programme seeks to strengthen the Caribbean Agricultural Health and Food Safety Agency, whereby two Chilean institutions - the Chilean Agency for Food Quality and Safety and the Agriculture and Livestock Service - have been selected by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization to provide cooperation to the Caribbean. These are two specific examples of cooperation that are part of a much broader programme almost always undertaken on a triangular basis. Through this approach, Chile can share its experience in the design and implementation of public policies that are also carefully evaluated practices producing positive results. We believe that this is the best way for the international community to support SIDS in overcoming their vulnerabilities.”

  6. “countries, Chile is implementing programmes of cooperation in teaching Spanish, international relations, disaster prevention and support for plant and animal health systems. This always involves a South-South approach; in other words, experience is shared in a horizontal relationship, particularly in order to create capacity for the design and implementation of public policies. I should like to highlight two specific programmes. We are implementing one in the Dominican Republic, entitled "Improving youth employability", jointly with the German agency for international cooperation. The goal is to improve access to microcredit and to encourage young people's entrepreneurship in association with local Governments.”

  7. “Mr. Riveros Marin (Chile) (spoke in Spanish): We thank New Zealand for this initiative to discuss issues affecting the promotion of international peace and security. The vulnerabilities of small island developing States (SIDS) arise from their inability to address emerging challenges and situations with global implications that can jeopardize the stability and the livelihood of these countries and regional and international peace and security. Cooperation for development is crucial to dealing with these threats. Chile has made a commitment to the SIDS and has therefore contributed, along with the countries of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), to capacity-sharing and the training of human capital through South-South cooperation. With all the CARICOM.”
