The first call for projects, closed on March 15, 2015, made it possible to select 6 projects :
- Exchanges of experiences on the process of making landfill bins according to the Fukuoka method: Wallis and Futuna/Fidji exchange, carried out by the Wallis and Futuna Territorial Environment Service
As part of the INTEGRE activities in Wallis and Futuna, the mission took place from April 25 to 29, 2016 in Labasa, Fiji. As the current Technical Burial Centre (TBC). at Vailepo in Wallis reaches its maximum storage capacity, it becomes necessary to install a new crate. Similarly in Futuna, a management strategy for Moasa's TBC needs to be redefined in order to improve its functioning. Thus, the main purpose of the mission was to visit the Namara centre in Labasa. The latter uses the Fukuoka method, created by the university and the city of Fukuoka in 1965 in Japan. It is developing a semi aerobic, low-cost waste management technique using local or recovered materials. Thus, this mission allowed an exchange of experience between the Agents of the Wallis and Futuna Environment Service and the agents of the Namara TBC as well as with the invited participants, the Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME) and SPREP. Beyond the visit of the TBC, the aim was to benefit from the knowledge of specialists and feedback on the application of the method.

- Feedback and exchange of experiences with the authority of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and the Strait of Torres on the consideration of traditional uses of the marine space: New Caledonia/Australia Exchange, led by the Conservatoire d'Espaces Naturels de la Nouvelle-Calédonie
The Great Barrier Reef Park shows many similarities with the UNESCO World Heritage property in New Caledonia, in terms of ecological issues, the management methods put in place or the economic and social context. This discussion confirmed the mutual interest of collaboration between the two sites, which is intended to continue beyond this exchange. Moreover, it has provided food for thought at the level of the three pilot sites in New Caledonia within the framework of the UNESCO management committees, which are the way to local legitimacy, particularly customary legitimacy on lagoon space and uses. It therefore contributed to the INTEGRE action plan for New Caledonia, which aimed in particular to boost the participatory management process and the mobilisation of local stakeholders at the three pilot sites, this mobilisation passing through recognition of local cultural specificities and the aspirations of the populations. This is a central issue for the effective implementation of integrated coastal zone management in New Caledonia but also in the Pacific as a whole. This exchange and the lessons learned were promoted to all partners of the INTEGRE project, notably during the mini regional workshop organised on 30 September and 1 October on ICZM plans.

- Wallis and Futuna-Samoa : Exchange of experiences on the manufacturing processes of virgin coconut oil
The mission to Samoa was suggested following the participation of the NGO Women In Business (WIBDI) in the conference on Sustainable Agriculture which was organized by the Direction des Services de l'Agriculture in Wallis in November 2014. This exchange aimed to facilitate the implementation of projects on the territory upon return, and raise awareness on the subject of regeneration and management of the coconut grove, essential to the industry. The objective was also to improve the production process of virgin coconut oil (VCO) used today in Futuna by the association Alofaina, following a training organized in Wallis in 2011 by the CPS.

- Ouvéa Biosecurity and local involvement: exchanges of experience with French Polynesia on the strategy implemented in the Marquesas: New Caledonia/French Polynesia (Marquesas) exchange, led by the ASBO (Association for the Safeguarding of the Biodiversity of Ouvéa)
ASBO requested the INTEGRE project to organize an exchange with the associations MANU and Vai ku'a i te manu o Ua Huka on the island of Ua Huka in Polynesia. This exchange program with these two Polynesian partner associations enabled the ASBO to present its actions at Ouvéa & Beautemps-Beaupré and to discover similar wildlife protection, biosecurity and ecological restoration programs. Many common points exist between the programs of these islands (Ouvéa, Ua Huka, Rimatara), the men and women who lead them and the conditions of realization: similar island environments, oceanic culture (Ouvéa received a strong Polynesian influence), participatory management, threatened endemic bird species, absence of black rat and ferral brown rat, risk of invasive species by boats.

- Study mission on the facilities and techniques used against erosion in pineapple growing areas on steep slopes: French Polynesia/Fidji exchange, led by the Rural Development Department of French Polynesia
As the INTEGRE programme also gives particular importance to regional exchanges and the sharing of experience, it was decided to carry out a technical mission in order to obtain precise information on the methods of growing pineapple on slopes, as practised in Fiji, which for many years has implemented specific anti-erosive techniques for its pineapple crops on steep slopes, with significant results. The information collected was used as a reference to design the anti-erosion development plan for the Opunohu area by accurately evaluating the transposable methods, or those that had to be adapted beforehand to the Polynesian context. Development work on the pilot plots was carried out in the second half of 2016 on the Opunohu estate.

- Dynamisation of the copra sector in Ouvéa : New Caledonia (Ouvéa)/Vanuatu exchange, supported by the Arbofruit association
The main objective of the technical mission, which took place from 11 to 16 October 2015, co-financed by the CPS, the commune of Ouvéa and one of its elected representatives, is to enable the stakeholders in the copra sector (field technicians and producers) to meet and exchange with their Vanuatu counterparts on coconut palm, in order to inspire the development of copra in the Loyalty Islands and to resolve the technical obstacles identified in the field and for which all the partners do not have sufficient experience and/or expertise.
