Non-economic loss and damage induced by climate change in the Pacific Islands region has been reported as fears of cultural loss, deterioration of vital ecosystem services, and dislocation from ancestral lands, among others. This paper undertakes an in-depth systematic review of literature from the frontlines of the Pacific Islands to ascertain the complexities of non-economic loss and damage from climate change. We synthesise knowledge to date on different but inter-connected categories of non-economic loss and damage, namely: human mobility and territory, cultural heritage and Indigenous knowledge, life and health, biodiversity and ecosystem services, and sense of place and social cohesion. Identifying gaps and possibilities for future research agendas is presented. Synthesising knowledge to date and identifying remaining gaps about non-economic loss and damage is an important step in taking stock of what we already know and fostering action and support for addressing loss and damage in the years to come.

据报道，由于担心文化损失，重要生态系统服务的恶化以及祖先土地的流离失所，太平洋岛屿地区气候变化引起的非经济损失和破坏。本文对太平洋岛屿前线的文献进行了深入的系统回顾，以确定非经济损失和气候变化造成的破坏的复杂性。迄今为止，我们综合了关于非经济损失和损害的不同但相互联系的类别的知识，即：人类流动性和领土，文化遗产和土著知识，生命与健康，生物多样性和生态系统服务以及地方感和社会凝聚力。介绍了确定未来研究议程的差距和可能性。
