The workshop has established a common ground for the Pacific Islands to share their unique perspectives and collaborate on a vision for the future, as expressed in their Outcomes Statement. Bearing in mind the concern over the disappearance of the building skills and knowledge, the Outcomes Statement also recommended an integrated approach to safeguarding that includes the raw materials, structures, language, and traditions associated with indigenous architecture. This will be accomplished through informal and formal trainings, policy-making, awareness-raising, research and networking.

The Outcomes Statement also presents a collective call for support from national governments, regional agencies, and the private sector, as well as to the UNESCO and CHRIAP, who have a mandate to safeguard cultural heritage. This workshop was being conducted by the Ministry of Education, Sports and Culture and with the technical assistance of the UNESCO Office for the Pacific States.
