Oceania is a geographical, often geopolitical, region consisting of numerous lands—mostly islands in the Pacific Ocean and vicinity. The term is often used in many languages to define one of the continents and is one of eight terrestrial ecozones.
Ethnologically, the islands that are included in Oceania are divided into the subregions of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia.
The exact scope of Oceania is variably defined: it generally includes New Zealand, is often taken to include parts of Australasia such as Australia and New Guinea, and sometimes all or part of the Malay Archipelago
[edit] Share information about . . .[edit] PlacesShare information about places - where you live, work or visit, from local communities to cities, regions, countries and the whole continent. (For other countries, continents and the planet itself please see our main Places, projects and networks page.) What information might be relevant to quality of life or wellbeing in each area or community? What challenges or opportunities face the area or community? Impacts of Climate change? Challenges to Environmental, social or economic wellbeing? Transport and Planning challenges? Local sustainability challenges? A good way to start an article is to see if there's an article about the place in Wikipedia, which you can adapt to include material which might be relevant to sustainability. Alternatively build up a list of relevant links. [edit] Projects and networksShare information about any local sustainability projects or networks (both local and non-local) you may be involved with or know about. If you're unsure what information to include, just imagine you're wanting to learn about other projects. What information would you find useful? A good example project page is Kingston Green Fair
