A/RES/69/15 SIDS Accelerated Modalities of Action (SAMOA) Pathway 63. In this regard, we are committed to working together to support the efforts of small island developing States: (a) To promote the further use of sustainable practices relating to agriculture, crops, livestock, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture to improve food and nutrition security while ensuring the sustainable management of the required water resources; (b) To promote open and efficient international and domestic markets to support economic development and optimize food security and nutrition; (c) To enhance international cooperation to maintain access to global food markets, particularly during periods of higher volatility in commodity markets; (d) To increase rural income and jobs, with a focus on the empowerment of smallholders and small-scale food producers, especially women; (e) To end malnutrition in all its forms, including by securing year-round access to sufficient, safe, affordable, diverse and nutritious food; (f) To enhance the resilience of agriculture and fisheries to the adverse impacts of climate change, ocean acidification and natural disasters; (g) To maintain natural ecological processes that support sustainable food production systems through international technical cooperation. Water and sanitation 64. We recognize that small island developing States face numerous challenges with respect to freshwater resources, including pollution, the overexploitation of surface, ground and coastal waters, saline intrusion, drought and water scarcity, soil erosion, water and wastewater treatment and the lack of access to sanitation and hygiene. Furthermore, changes in rainfall patterns related to climate change have regionally varying and potentially significant impacts on water supply. 65. In this regard, we are committed to supporting the efforts of small island developing States: (a) To develop institutional and human capacities for the effective, inclusive and sustainable implementation of the integrated management of water resources and related ecosystems, including supporting women’s engagement in water management systems; (b) To provide and operate appropriate facilities and infrastructure for safe drinking water, sanitation, hygiene and waste management systems, including the exploration of desalination technology where economically and environmentally feasible; (c) To facilitate the expansion of wastewater treatment, recycling and reuse in the context of the sustainable and efficient use of water resources; (d) To improve water-use efficiency and work towards eliminating overextraction, especially of groundwater, and to mitigate the effects of saltwater intrusion. Sustainable transportation 66. We recognize that transportation and mobility are central to the sustainable development of small island developing States. Sustainable transportation can enhance economic growth, promote trade opportunities and improve accessibility. Sustainable, reliable and safe transportation achieves better integration of the 16/30
