The first conference of the Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific Movement was held in Suva in April 1975. The Pacific Concerns Resource Center published several documents relating to a nuclear free and independent Pacific, including Pacific news bulletin, a monthly journal first published in Sydney, and from 1999, in Suva. Issues and countries it covered include decolonisation and self-determination struggles, the environment and sustainable development, indigenous rights, sovereignty and land rights, demilitarisation and anti-nuclear campaigns, intellectual property rights for indigenous peoples, East Timor, West Papua, Bougainville, Kanaky, Te Ao Maohi and the Philippines. Other documents filmed include: Pacific Concerns Resource Centre annual report (1999-2004); Canberra Kanaky bulletin (1985-1986), edited by Barry and Dorothy Shineberg; Kanaky update: towards New Caledonian independence (1984-1989), edited by George Tieman and Reverend Dick Wooton; Nuclear free Pacific news (1982-1983); Pacific Concerns Resource Center bulletin (1981-1985); and, Pacific news (later title: Pacific news bulletin) (1983-2004). The collection also includes: To'ere: no te tiamaraa, a private newspaper published weekly in Faa'a, Tahiti, and edited by Claude Marere from 2002-2006; and, Independence and sovereignty for Te Ao Maohi (French Polynesia), translated by Nic MacLellan and published in Faa'a, Tahiti in 1997. aElectronic reproduction:bCanberra :cPacific Manuscripts Bureau, d2022 bVictoriacAustralia aAvailable for referenceuhttp://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/pambu/copyright.php0 aIn the 1980s, Nic Maclellan was a trade union activist and member of the Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific (NFIP) movement. He also travelled regularly to New Caledonia, French Polynesia and Marshall Islands, documenting struggles around US and French colonialism and nuclear testing. Between 1986-1995, Maclellan worked as a field officer for the Pacific program of the Overseas Service Bureau, in Papua New Guinea and Fiji, and then went on to establish the Australian Volunteers Abroad (AVA) program in Marshall Islands, Palau and Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). During his travels, Maclellan took hundreds of Kodachrome slides, which capture images of daily life in PNG and Micronesia during the 1980s, as well as unique moments in the rise of the Kanak independence movement during the 1984-1988 conflict known as 'Les evenements' or 'the events'. In the 2000s, Maclellan has worked as a correspondent for Islands Business magazine and contributor to Pacnews, Inside Story and other regional media.41uhttp://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/pambu/digital/catalogue/index.php/publications-of-the-pacific-concerns-resource-center-nuclear-free-and-independent-pacific-movement-and-associated-organisationszView this item in the Pacific Manuscripts Bureau Catalogue.
