Using little more than a dugout canoe, an iron bar and more importantly, brute strength, the people of the Lau Lagoon, known as the wane i asi or Saltwater People, have for centuries collected coral rock from the ocean floor to build new islands on which to raise their children... The story of Lau Lagoon is a fascinating one, and one that's definitely worth exploring in person.

Protecting the Pacific's most valuable natural resource takes teamwork, technology, and regional cooperation.

Protecting the Pacific's most valuable natural resource takes teamwork, technology, and regional cooperation. The Pacific tuna fishery is the economic backbone of many Pacific Island countries, generating vital revenue that supports schools, hospitals, livelihoods, and national development. Through Operation Tui Moana, FFA coordinated a multinational surveillance operation bringing together fisheries, maritime, and law enforcement personnel from 10 FFA Members, with support from Australia, New Zealand, France, and the United States, to combat illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing across the region. Using satellite monitoring, aerial surveillance, intelligence sharing, and coordinated patrols, the operation identified suspicious vessel activity, strengthened compliance efforts, and protected the sustainable management of Pacific tuna resources. Operation Tui Moana concluded with: 4 vessels of interest identified 2 apprehensions linked to suspected fisheries-related offences Regional cooperation remains our strongest defence against IUU fishing. Together, we are safeguarding the Pacific's tuna resources for the benefit of our people today and for future generations. Learn more through SBS News feature on Operation Tui Moana and the fight against illegal fishing in the Pacific https://www.sbs.com.au/.../tuna-wars-cracking.../qelqhq9el

Following the graduation in Vatulele, the journey continued in Beqa, as last Friday we celebrated community members with 118 participants graduating in Boat Master Licence and Restricted Master Engineer Class 6 certification and 16 participants completing fibreglass boat repair and maintenance training. The occasion also included the handover of toolboxes to young trainees and maritime safety kits, helping communities put their new skills into practice and strengthen safety at sea. As Minister for Policing and Communications Hon. Ioane Naivalurua reminded graduates, "Today is not the end of a training course, it is the beginning of a new journey." More than a training programme, Solesolevaki ni Veitaqomaki demonstrates the power of multi-agency collaboration, bringing together Government agencies, traditional and faith leaders, communities and partners to strengthen maritime safety, support livelihoods and build more resilient coastal communities. Congratulations to all the graduates as they join a growing network of more than 1,100 certified community members helping build safer seas across Fiji. This initiative is implemented by the UNDP and the Ministry of Policing and Communications in collaboration with the Republic Of Fiji Navy, The Maritime Safety Authority of Fiji - MSAF, Fiji Revenue and Customs Service, Fiji Police Force, the Ministry of Youth and Sports and CATD, Nadave with the generous support of the UK in Fiji.

Behind every sustainable tuna fishery are people working to safeguard our ocean.

🌊 Behind every sustainable tuna fishery are people working to safeguard our ocean. Fisheries observers spend long periods at sea, often far from home, helping protect one of the Pacific's most valuable resources. On board fishing vessels, they collect important scientific data, monitor fishing activities and help make sure fisheries rules are being followed. Their work also supports regional efforts to tackle illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing.

Shaping the future of civic education in Fiji

Shaping the future of civic education in Fiji . Young leaders in Fiji recently participated in the Political Parties Pilot Programme delivered through the Fijian Elections Office Institute of Democracy and Electoral Education in partnership with International IDEA. The participants were alumni of Fiji’s 2025 Youth Parliament Programme, bringing their experiences and perspectives as young advocates for democratic participation to the pilot process. Following completion of the week-long online course, participants came together in Suva for a two-day interactive workshop to explore the role of political parties in a representative democracy, discuss democratic participation, and put the pilot course to the test. More than a training programme, this pilot was an opportunity for participants to help shape the future of civic and electoral education in Fiji. Through practical activities, open discussions, and structured feedback, the Youth Parliament alumni provided valuable recommendations on the relevance, accessibility, and effectiveness of the course content and learning materials. The insights gathered will now be used to refine the course and inform the development of future IDEE civic education modules on democracy, elections, constitutions, and local governance. A big thank you to the Parliament of the Republic of Fiji Youth Parliament alumni who contributed their time, ideas, and honest feedback. Your contributions will help create more engaging, relevant, and inclusive civic education resources for young people across Fiji. This work supported by Australian High Commission, Fiji and New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade .
