Fiji
We have been working with our sister NGO the Pacific Centre for Peace Building with communities on Vanua Levu including Vunicuicui, and Kothari that have been hardhit by a flash flood. Landslides have impacted livelihoods and damaged houses, water supplies and emerging from this …we are supporting a local initiative to form a womens co-op social enterprise around a cheaper local community store, ICT learning centre and seedling bank. Four digital community stories are in production.
We are currently hampered by a lack of funds to finish production on the first of a series of Fijian digital community stories about the Wainunu communities and their local initiatives and enterprises to build a sustainable future and to strengthen their rich cultural stories and identities. We are working together to build their solar powered community learning centre.
