Thinking he would complete his three-year contract there before returning to the UK, Patrick in fact spent 25 years there, being appointed to a Personal Chair (Professor of Oceanic Geoscience) in 1997 and then in 2009 becoming Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research and International).

His early work on the Quaternary geology and tectonics of many islands and island groups in Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and Vanuatu still represents the latest word on many of these issues today. In response to an invitation from the Fiji Museum, he began a collaboration that lasted more than a decade and involved Patrick directing a number of excavations in Fiji, notably the seven-year programme along the Rove Peninsula in southwest Viti Levu Island that involved the discovery of what is still likely to be Fiji\u2019s first settlement at Bourewa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Climate change has also been a long-term research interest of Patrick\u2019s, focused initially on the Pacific Islands region but now more generally situated in poorer countries (the &#8216;developing&#8217; world) and the Asia\u2013Pacific region. His world-class research in this area has been extended with the announcement that he will be Lead Author on the \u2018Small Islands\u2019 chapter of the next (6th) Assessment Report of the IPCC, scheduled for completion in 2022. He also gave Keynote Addresses at the Adaptation Futures 2018 conference in Cape Town in June 2018 and at the Climate Change and Islands Symposium, funded by the Volkswagen Foundation, in Hanover the following month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gerard Prinsen<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;<u><br><\/u><\/strong><strong>Senior Lecturer<br><\/strong><strong>School of People, Environment and Planning<br><\/strong><strong>Massey University, New Zealand <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"188\" src=\"http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/unescochair\/files\/2018\/11\/Prinsen-G-biopic-26Jun17-1-301x188.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-985\" srcset=\"http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/unescochair\/files\/2018\/11\/Prinsen-G-biopic-26Jun17-1-301x188.jpg 301w, http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/unescochair\/files\/2018\/11\/Prinsen-G-biopic-26Jun17-1-768x479.jpg 768w, http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/unescochair\/files\/2018\/11\/Prinsen-G-biopic-26Jun17-1-1000x623.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/unescochair\/files\/2018\/11\/Prinsen-G-biopic-26Jun17-1-481x300.jpg 481w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Dr. Gerard Prinsen\u2019s teaching and research at Massey University, he has also been teaching at Victoria University Wellington since 2007, in the two papers&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.victoria.ac.nz\/courses\/deve\/512?year=2014\">Development Practice<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.victoria.ac.nz\/courses\/deve\/513?year=2014\">Development Policy<\/a>.
