BY TONY IROGA The Kaloka Youth Association of Isabel province yesterday officially acknowledged the efforts of software engineering student Mr. Adrian Obadiah, whose dedication and commitment led to the development of the association’s new website. In an interview with Island Sun, Mr Obadiah shared his story about developing the website for the association. Mr. Obadiah, who hails from Isabel Province is currently in his final year of Software Engineering studies at the University of the South Pacific (USP) in Fiji. He said the project was driven by a desire to give back to his community rather than to make money. “This website came from the heart. “It’s one thing to build something for financial gain, but it’s another to build something without expecting payment because you genuinely want to contribute to your community,” he said. Mr. Obadiah said the inspiration behind the project came after the passing of his mother last year, when members of the Kaloka community united to support his family during their time of grief. “When my mum passed away, the people of Kaloka came together and supported us from the very first night. Their kindness touched my heart and made me realise I should also give back to my community. “As part of the community myself, this is my way of saying thank you,” he said. Developing the website was not without challenges. Mr. Obadiah said balancing his university studies, internship and the website project required strong time management and determination. “I was studying in Fiji, completing my internship and preparing for exams while building the website from scratch. Time management was my biggest challenge, but I stayed motivated because this project was special to me,” he said. Unlike many software projects that involve teams of developers, Mr. Obadiah completed the entire website on his own. “I developed everything from scratch right through to the production stage. It was a solo project, and I’m grateful I was able to complete it,” he said. He also acknowledged the support provided by the Kaloka Youth Association, particularly in helping to cover infrastructure costs such as web hosting, servers, domain registration and custom email services. “I didn’t charge the association for developing the website because this was my contribution to the community. The association supported me with the infrastructure needed to keep the website online, while I personally invested in the software tools and subscriptions used throughout the development” he said. Mr. Obadiah said the website will continue to be updated with information about the association’s activities, missions and vision as it works to create more opportunities for young people. He encourages Solomon Islands students studying overseas to return home and use their skills to serve their communities. “My message to students is to make the most of your education overseas and come back to give back to your communities. Don’t just come home and take a selfie—use what you’ve learned to make a difference,” he said. Mr. Obadiah also expressed gratitude to his family, friends, his partner and the Kaloka community for their encouragement throughout the project. “I would like to thank my family, loved ones, friends and my partner for standing by me through every challenge. Above all, I thank God for giving me the knowledge, wisdom and understanding to reach this point,” he said.

作者:托尼·伊罗加 所罗门岛伊莎贝尔省的卡洛卡青年协会昨日正式表彰了软件工程学生阿德里安·奥巴迪亚(Mr. Adrian Obadiah)的努力,他的奉献和承诺促成了该协会新网站的开发。 在接受《岛屿太阳》采访时,奥巴迪亚分享了他为协会开发网站的故事。 来自伊莎贝尔省的奥巴迪亚目前正在南太平洋大学(University of the South Pacific,USP)攻读软件工程专业的最后一年。 他说,这个项目是出于回馈社区的愿望,而不是为了赚钱。 “这个网站是发自内心的。 “为了经济利益而建造某样东西是一回事,但无偿建造某样东西,因为你真心想为社区做贡献又是另一回事,”他说。 奥巴迪亚表示,项目的灵感来源于去年他母亲去世后,卡洛卡社区的成员团结起来支持他的家庭度过悲痛时刻。 “当我妈妈去世时,卡洛卡的人们从第一晚就聚在一起支持我们。他们的善良感动了我,让我意识到我也应该回馈我的社区。 “作为社区的一员,这就是我表达感谢的方式,”他说。 开发网站并非没有挑战。奥巴迪亚表示,平衡大学学习、实习和网站项目需要强大的时间管理和决心。 “我在斐济学习,完成实习,同时准备考试,边从零开始构建网站。时间管理是我最大的挑战,但我保持了动力,因为这个项目对我来说特别重要,”他说。 与许多需要开发团队的软件项目不同,奥巴迪亚独自完成了整个网站。 “我从头开始开发所有内容,直到生产阶段。这是一个独立项目,我很感激我能够完成它,”他说。 他还感谢卡洛卡青年协会提供的支持,特别是在帮助支付基础设施费用方面,如网站托管、服务器、域名注册和定制电子邮件服务。 “我没有向协会收取开发网站的费用,因为这是我对社区的贡献。协会支持我提供保持网站在线所需的基础设施,而我个人投资了开发过程中使用的软件工具和订阅,”他说。 奥巴迪亚表示,网站将继续更新有关协会活动、使命和愿景的信息,以创造更多年轻人的机会。 他鼓励在海外学习的所罗门群岛学生回国,利用他们的技能服务于社区。 “我对学生的寄语是,充分利用你们在海外的教育,回国回馈社区。不要只是回家拍自拍——利用你们所学的知识来改变现状,”他说。 奥巴迪亚还对他的家人、朋友、伴侣和卡洛卡社区在整个项目中的鼓励表示感谢。 “我想感谢我的家人、爱人、朋友和伴侣在每一个挑战中支持我。最重要的是,我感谢上帝赐予我知识、智慧和理解,使我能够达到这一点,”他说。 照片来源:托尼·伊罗加 反馈请联系:tonyiroga8@gmail.com 编辑:irwin3angiki@gmail.com
Solomon Airlines is celebrating another significant milestone in its aviation history, with First Officer Lyndah Tito Owen becoming the airline’s first local female pilot to commence Airbus A320 line training. The milestone was marked this week when international services IE711 from Auckland to Port Vila and IE723 from Port Vila to Honiara were operated by Captain Claudia Walding and First Officer Lyndah Tito Owen,the airline’s only two female Airbus A320 pilots. The flights represent another proud achievement for Solomon Airlines as Lyndah begins her transition to the airline’s international jet operations alongside Captain Walding, Solomon Airlines’ first female Airbus A320 Captain. The achievement reflects Solomon Airlines’ ongoing commitment to developing local aviation talent and creating opportunities for women in aviation. Captain Claudia Walding joined Solomon Airlines in 2000 and made history in 2015 as the airline’s first female Airbus A320 Captain, paving the way for future generations of women pursuing careers in commercial aviation. First Officer Lyndah Tito Owen joined Solomon Airlines in 2009 and has consistently broken new ground throughout her career. In 2017, she and Captain Patricia Avosa became Solomon Airlines’ first all-local female flight crew, operating together aboard a De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter. In 2023, she became the airline’s first female Dash 8 Captain and now reaches another milestone as the first local female pilot to commence Airbus A320 line training.

MOU to Reinstate SICA Women’s Desk Women representatives from four Christian denominations have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to work together towards reinstating the Solomon Islands Christian Association (SICA) Women’s Desk, approximately 12 years after it was formally abolished. The signing was a major outcome of the inaugural Inter-denominational Christian Women’s Leadership Forum on Gender Equality Theology, held on 25 May 2026 in Honiara, Solomon Islands. The forum brought together representatives from the South Seas Evangelical Church [SSEC], Anglican Church of Melanesia, Roman Catholic Church and United Church. Lady Mary Vunagi, wife of the late former governor-general and Anglican archbishop Sir David Vunagi, attended the forum as an adviser. During the forum, participants shared information about the programmes their respective churches provide for women, families, children and young people. These include positiveparenting and child-protection programmes, youth groups, prayer and support groups, counselling services, community outreach and visitation programmes, and activities promoting spiritual growth and biblical ways of living. Some churches also conduct awareness programmes and family-week activities covering a range of family and gender-related topics. Although the denominations offer different programmes, participants agreed that their work is based on the common Christian belief that every person is created in the image of God and should be treated with love, dignity and respect. They said biblical teachings about partnership, mutual respect and following the example of Jesus Christ should form the foundation of efforts to promote gender equality and healthy relationships among women and men. Participants also emphasised the importance of counselling, prayer and a sound understanding of the Word of God in building strong families and communities. The forum recognised that community gatherings provide an important platform for people to discuss gender issues and develop grassroots responses. Participants said these gatherings should bring women and men together while also providing separate spaces in which each group can speak openly and comfortably about sensitive issues. They noted that cultural barriers often prevent women from discussing certain matters when men are present, particularly in rural communities. The forum agreed that dedicated women’s and men’s discussion groups could help participants speak honestly about their experiences before coming together to identify shared solutions. The educational disadvantages experienced by many women were also discussed. Participants said women who have had limited access to education may not fully understand their rights or know how to seek assistance, respond to difficulties or become empowered to improve their circumstances. They said churches have an important role in educating and empowering women while helping both women and men understand their responsibilities within families, churches and communities. Participants also agreed that women and men have different responsibilities assigned by God, but these differences should never be used to downplay the dignity, contribution or value of women. A sound understanding of the Word of God was identified as essential to building respectful partnerships between women and men. Another major concern raised during the forum was the well-being of children and young people. Participants described young people as the country’s future leaders and one of the largest groups within the population. They called for churches to place greater emphasis on youth education, positive parenting and programmes supporting children from early childhood through their teenage years. Participants said childhood and adolescence are critical periods during which people develop their values, behaviour and personalities. Positive parenting, strong Christian teaching and cooperation between families, churches and communities were identified as essential to addressing child abuse, family breakdown and the growing number of young people who feel lost or disconnected. The forum heard that raising a family is increasingly challenging and that issues affecting children and young people go beyond denominational boundaries. Participants said Christian churches must work together to educate young people, reconnect vulnerable or disengaged youth with their communities and prepare the next generation for leadership. The women agreed that reinstating the SICA Women’s Desk would provide a central platform for coordinating this work, strengthening cooperation between denominations and ensuring that women’s concerns are represented within SICA. The SICA Women’s Desk was formally abolished approximately 12 years ago, following the departure of the last person who held the position. Participants said the reinstatement of the position would restore an important platform for women from different churches to work together on issues affecting women, children, young people and families. Following discussions at the forum, participants met with Lionel Dau, the General Secretary of SICA, who expressed support for the proposal. A memorandum of understanding was subsequently developed and signed on 21 July 2026. The MOU was signed by Lady Mary Vunagi, forum adviser; Florence Naesol, National Women’s Coordinator, South Seas Evangelical Church; Matilda Maneniaru, Chair Lady Catholic Women’s Council & Sarah Belende Manedetea, Women’s desk, Catholic Archdioceses of Honiara; Clara Ramofafia, Women’s Representative, United Church; and Sandra Rollands, President of the Mother's Union, Anglican Church of Melanesia. The signing was formally witnessed by Julia Nho, the forum facilitator and host, who is a PhD researcher at the University of Notre Dame Australia. The signing marked an important step towards reinstating the SICA Women’s Desk and strengthening cooperation among Christian women across Solomon Islands. The renewed Women’s Desk is expected to help churches coordinate programmes for women, children, families and young people while promoting Christian responses to gender and social issues. Further discussions and upcoming forums will focus on the next steps for establishing and filling the Women’s Desk position, including how it will operate and be supported moving forward. Moving forward, the intention is for local church women leaders, together with SICA, to take forward the process through agreed local structures. The inaugural forum was initially designed and hosted by Julia Nho, PhD Researcher at University of Notre Dame, in partnership with Ms Sandra Rollands, President of the Anglican Church Mothers’ Union. This partnership reflected the Anglican Church of Melanesia’s current role as chair of SICA for 2026 and 2027. //end// Source: Inter-denominational Christian Women’s Leadership Forum on Gender Equality Theology Photo caption: Participants of the inaugural Inter-denominational Christian Women’s Leadership Forum on Gender Equality Theology.

MOU to Reinstate SICA Women’s Desk 来自四个基督教教派的女性代表签署了一份谅解备忘录(MOU),以共同努力恢复所罗门群岛基督教协会(SICA)女性事务处,距其正式废除约12年。 此次签署是2026年5月25日在所罗门群岛霍尼亚拉举行的首届跨教派基督教女性领导论坛关于性别平等神学的重要成果。 论坛汇聚了南海福音教会(SSEC)、美拉尼西亚圣公会、罗马天主教会和联合教会的代表。 已故前总督兼圣公会大主教大卫·武纳吉爵士的妻子玛丽·武纳吉女士作为顾问出席了论坛。 在论坛期间,参与者分享了各自教会为女性、家庭、儿童和年轻人提供的项目。 这些项目包括积极育儿和儿童保护项目、青年团体、祈祷和支持小组、咨询服务、社区外展和探访项目,以及促进灵性成长和圣经生活方式的活动。 一些教会还开展了涵盖各种家庭和性别相关主题的意识项目和家庭周活动。 尽管各教派提供不同的项目,参与者一致认为,他们的工作基于共同的基督教信仰,即每个人都是按照上帝的形象被创造的,应该受到爱、尊严和尊重的对待。 他们表示,关于伙伴关系、相互尊重和效仿耶稣基督的圣经教导应成为促进性别平等和健康男女关系的基础。 参与者还强调了咨询、祈祷和对上帝话语的正确理解在建立强大家庭和社区中的重要性。 论坛认识到,社区聚会为人们讨论性别问题和发展基层应对措施提供了重要平台。 参与者表示,这些聚会应将女性和男性聚集在一起,同时为每个群体提供独立空间,以便他们能够公开和舒适地讨论敏感问题。 他们指出,文化障碍常常阻止女性在男性在场时讨论某些问题,尤其是在农村社区。 论坛一致认为,专门的女性和男性讨论小组可以帮助参与者坦诚地分享他们的经历,然后共同寻找解决方案。 许多女性所经历的教育劣势也得到了讨论。 参与者表示,接受教育机会有限的女性可能无法充分理解自己的权利,或不知道如何寻求帮助、应对困难,或获得改善自身状况的能力。 他们表示,教会在教育和赋权女性方面发挥着重要作用,同时帮助女性和男性理解他们在家庭、教会和社区中的责任。 参与者还一致认为,女性和男性在上帝面前被赋予了不同的责任,但这些差异绝不应被用来贬低女性的尊严、贡献或价值。 对上帝话语的深刻理解被认为是建立男女之间尊重伙伴关系的关键。 论坛上提出的另一个主要关注点是儿童和青少年的福祉。 参与者将年轻人描述为国家的未来领导者,并且是人口中最大的群体之一。 他们呼吁教会更加重视青少年教育、积极的育儿和支持儿童从早期儿童阶段到青少年时期的项目。 参与者表示,童年和青春期是人们发展价值观、行为和个性的关键时期。 积极的育儿、强有力的基督教教导以及家庭、教会和社区之间的合作被认为是解决儿童虐待、家庭破裂以及越来越多感到迷失或脱节的年轻人的关键。 论坛听到,抚养家庭的挑战日益增加,影响儿童和青少年的问题超越了宗派界限。 参与者表示,基督教教会必须共同努力,教育年轻人,使脆弱或脱节的青少年重新与他们的社区建立联系,并为下一代的领导力做好准备。 女性们一致认为,恢复SICA女性事务处将为协调这项工作提供一个中心平台,加强各教派之间的合作,并确保女性的关切在SICA中得到代表。 SICA女性事务处在大约12年前正式被废除,原因是最后一位担任该职位的人离职。 与会者表示,恢复该职位将为来自不同教会的女性提供一个重要平台,以共同应对影响女性、儿童、年轻人和家庭的问题。 在论坛讨论后,与会者会见了SICA的秘书长Lionel Dau,他对该提案表示支持。 一份谅解备忘录随后于2026年7月21日制定并签署。 该备忘录由论坛顾问Lady Mary Vunagi、南海福音教会国家女性协调员Florence Naesol、天主教女性委员会主席Matilda Maneniaru、霍尼亚拉天主教大主教区女性事务处Sarah Belende Manedetea、联合教会女性代表Clara Ramofafia,以及美拉尼西亚圣公会母亲联盟主席Sandra Rollands签署。 签署仪式由论坛主持人Julia Nho正式见证,她是澳大利亚诺特丹大学的博士研究人员。 此次签署标志着恢复SICA女性事务处的重要一步,并加强了所罗门群岛基督教女性之间的合作。 重新设立的女性事务处预计将帮助教会协调针对女性、儿童、家庭和年轻人的项目,同时促进基督教对性别和社会问题的回应。 进一步的讨论和即将召开的论坛将集中于建立和填补女性事务处职位的下一步,包括如何运作和支持该职位的未来发展。 展望未来,意图是让地方教会女性领导人与SICA共同推进通过商定的地方结构进行的过程。 首届论坛最初由诺特丹大学的博士研究人员Julia Nho设计和主持,与美拉尼西亚圣公会母亲联盟主席Sandra Rollands合作。 这一合作反映了美拉尼西亚圣公会在2026年和2027年担任SICA主席的当前角色。 Source: Inter-denominational Christian Women’s Leadership Forum on Gender Equality Theology 照片说明:首届跨宗派基督教女性领导论坛关于性别平等神学的参与者。从左到右:论坛顾问Mary Vunagi女士;南海福音教会的Florence Naesol;罗马天主教会的Sarah Belende Manedetea和Matildas Maneniaru;中间是论坛主持人Julia Nho;联合教会的Clara Ramofafia;以及圣公会的Sandra Rollands。
BY RODRICK DESURI Auki North Malaita’s Besi Youth Association has sent two of its members to China for a look-and-learn seminar on agricultural practices. The two Besi Youth members left for China yesterday with the aim to gain more knowledge and skills to help their association. The trip was made possible through a bilateral partnership between the Chinese Embassy, the Besi Youth Association and ongoing support from the Malaita Youth Council. Vice Chairman of the Besi Youth Association, Kelly Gilead, said the trip will be a great opportunity for their members and the association to learn new knowledge and skills for their operations. He said the trip will provide firsthand information from experienced and skillful people with aim to strengthen agricultural and fisheries aquaculture in Pacific countries. “Like the first seminar that we attended, this one is on agriculture and fisheries aquaculture. This seminar is similar to our association’s focus on agriculture. “This is a great opportunity for us after establishing a partnership with the Chinese Embassy,” he said. He said they will continue to send their association members to China in the future. “This is the second group, and our third group will soon be going to China to learn more about Chinese agricultural practices,” he said. The Besi Youth Association (BYA) was established in 2025 in Besi Village, located in the To’abaita area of North Malaita. The youth-led group was formed to empower young people in rural areas through leadership development, education, and sustainable agriculture, such as local taro production.

BY JOHN HOUANIHAU The World Health Organization (WHO) is urging stronger action to protect young people in Solomon Islands from tobacco products and industry marketing tactics designed to attract and addict them early, said a WHO press release issued to mark this year’s World No Tobacco Day. The press release said WHO Solomon Islands Officer-in-Charge Dr Sakthivel Selvaraj calls for stronger measures to reduce the appeal of tobacco and nicotine products among young people. He highlighted tighter controls on flavoured tobacco products, advertising, promotion and product designs that make smoking more attractive to youths. He also calls for stronger tobacco control laws, tougher enforcement, increased community awareness and greater support for people trying to quit smoking. “Together, let’s unmask the appeal, expose industry’s tactics, and protect the health and future of our children and communities. Remember, the appeal is manufactured, but the harm is real,” Dr Selvaraj said. WHO Solomon Islands Technical Officer for Non-Communicable Diseases, Dr Tsogzolmaa Bayandorj, also urges young people to not be misled by tobacco marketing. She said products promoted as “tobacco-free” or “smooth” should not be regarded as safe, warning that nicotine is addictive in any form. Dr Bayandorj encourages smokers who want to quit to seek help from health clinics and health centres, where proven cessation methods such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and counselling are available. “Don’t let tobacco marketing confuse you. ‘Tobacco-free’ doesn’t mean safe, ‘smooth’ doesn’t mean weak. Nicotine is addictive in any form, and if you don’t smoke, don’t start. If you’re trying to quit, speak to your health clinic and health centres about safe and proven options,” she said. The statement also quoted youth representative Haddasah Dowo, who described the fight against tobacco as a fight for freedom whilst urging young people to reject addiction. “We are the generation that can unmask the appeal and expose the truth. Let us choose health over addiction. Let us choose awareness over deception. Let us choose life over tobacco,” Ms Dowo said.

作者:约翰·霍阿尼哈乌 世界卫生组织(WHO)呼吁采取更强有力的行动,以保护所罗门群岛的年轻人免受烟草产品和旨在吸引和使他们早期上瘾的行业营销策略的影响,世卫组织在发布的新闻稿中表示,这是为了纪念今年的世界无烟日。 新闻稿中提到,世卫组织所罗门群岛负责人萨克蒂维尔·塞尔瓦拉杰博士呼吁采取更强有力的措施,以减少烟草和尼古丁产品对年轻人的吸引力。 他强调需要对香味烟草产品、广告、促销和使吸烟对年轻人更具吸引力的产品设计实施更严格的控制。 他还呼吁加强烟草控制法律、加大执法力度、提高社区意识,并为试图戒烟的人提供更多支持。 “让我们共同揭开烟草的吸引力,揭露行业的策略,保护我们孩子和社区的健康与未来。请记住,吸引力是人为制造的,但危害是真实的,”塞尔瓦拉杰博士说。 世卫组织所罗门群岛非传染性疾病技术官员佐戈尔玛·巴扬多尔杰博士也呼吁年轻人不要被烟草营销所误导。 她表示,被宣传为“无烟草”或“顺滑”的产品不应被视为安全,并警告说,尼古丁以任何形式都是上瘾的。 巴扬多尔杰博士鼓励希望戒烟的吸烟者寻求健康诊所和健康中心的帮助,这里提供经过验证的戒烟方法,如尼古丁贴片、尼古丁口香糖和咨询服务。 “不要让烟草营销混淆你。‘无烟草’并不意味着安全,‘顺滑’并不意味着弱。尼古丁以任何形式都是上瘾的,如果你不吸烟,就不要开始。如果你正在尝试戒烟,请与健康诊所和健康中心讨论安全和经过验证的选择,”她说。 声明还引用了青年代表哈达萨·多沃,她将与烟草的斗争描述为争取自由的斗争,并呼吁年轻人拒绝上瘾。 “我们是能够揭开吸引力、揭露真相的一代。让我们选择健康而不是上瘾。让我们选择意识而不是欺骗。让我们选择生命而不是烟草,”多沃女士说。 如需反馈,请联系:jhouanihau24@gmail.com 编辑:irwin3angiki@gmail.com

Honiara, Solomon Islands - Twenty-five women market vendors from Honiara are celebrating a significant milestone in their journey towards financial empowerment after successfully completing the Saver Plus Initiative—a matched savings programme implemented through the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in partnership with ANZ Bank. The graduation ceremony, held at the Heritage Park Hotel, marked the culmination of a ten-month pilot programme that combined financial literacy with practical savings, equipping women market vendors with the knowledge, confidence, and financial tools to improve their livelihoods and strengthen their economic resilience. Participants committed to saving SBD180 every month over ten months. Upon completing the programme, ANZ matched each participant's savings, enabling the women to purchase productive assets and essential household items they had identified through ANZ's MoneyMinded financial literacy training. For many of the graduates, the programme has transformed not only their financial situation but also their mindset. "Before joining the programme, I saved only when I had money left over. Through the MoneyMinded training, I learned how to budget, set financial goals, and save consistently. Completing the programme has given me confidence that I can plan for my family's future and achieve the goals I once thought were out of reach," shared one participant. Ms Betty Isu, market vendor, Honiara Municipal Market The Saver Plus Initiative demonstrates the power of combining financial education with practical incentives to promote lasting behavioural change. Through regular saving, budgeting, and financial planning, participants have developed habits that will continue to benefit them well beyond the life of the programme. Speaking at the graduation ceremony, the UNDP Solomon Islands Inclusive Growth Team leader, Mr Solomon Kalu, congratulated the graduates and reaffirmed UNDP's commitment to women's economic empowerment. "Today's graduation is about much more than completing a savings programme. It is about empowering women with the confidence, knowledge, and opportunities to make informed financial decisions, strengthen their businesses, and invest in a more secure future. When women are economically empowered, families prosper, communities become more resilient, and nations grow stronger." Betty Isu. UNDP Grace PIko. UNDP Martha Ossie. UNDP Through the Markets for Change initiative, UNDP continues to work alongside governments, local authorities, development partners, and the private sector to create more inclusive economic opportunities for women, particularly those working in the informal economy. The programme also reflects the strength of UNDP's long-standing partnership with ANZ Bank, whose MoneyMinded financial literacy programme has helped thousands of people across the Pacific build financial capability. By introducing the Saver Plus Initiative in Solomon Islands, the partnership has taken an important step beyond financial education by enabling participants to translate their new knowledge into meaningful financial assets. Another graduate described the discipline required throughout the programme. "Saving SBD180 every month was not always easy, especially when there were many family expenses. But the training encouraged me to stay committed, and knowing that our savings would be matched motivated me to keep going. Today, I am proud that I can purchase the items I planned for without taking on debt." Ms Grace Piko, market vendor, Honiara Municipal Market The initiative highlights the important role of partnerships in advancing financial inclusion and achieving sustainable development outcomes. Working together, UNDP, ANZ Bank, and the Honiara City Council Division of Women have demonstrated how collaborative approaches can create tangible benefits for women market vendors and their families. Beyond individual success stories, the programme contributes to broader national development priorities by strengthening women's participation in the economy, promoting financial inclusion, and supporting more resilient households and communities. For another participant, the impact of the programme extends beyond her own family. "This programme has taught me that financial independence starts with small, consistent steps. I will continue saving even after today, and I want to share what I have learned with other women in my community so they can also improve their lives and build a better future for their families." Ms Martha Ossie, market vendor, Honiara Municipal Market As the graduates begin the next chapter of their financial journey, the Saver Plus Initiative stands as a powerful example of what can be achieved when women are equipped with the right knowledge, supported by strong partnerships, and given access to practical financial opportunities. UNDP remains committed to working with government, the private sector, and development partners to expand financial inclusion, strengthen women's economic empowerment, and ensure that no one is left behind. About Markets for Change (M4C) The Markets for Change (M4C) initiative supports women market vendors across Fiji, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands and Samoa by promoting inclusive market governance, strengthening women's leadership, improving livelihoods, and expanding access to economic opportunities.

霍尼亚拉,所罗门群岛 - 二十五名来自霍尼亚拉的女性市场商贩在成功完成Saver Plus计划后,庆祝她们在金融赋权之路上的重要里程碑。该计划是通过联合国开发计划署(UNDP)与澳新银行(ANZ)合作实施的配对储蓄项目。 毕业典礼在遗产公园酒店举行,标志着为期十个月的试点项目的圆满结束,该项目将金融素养与实际储蓄相结合,使女性市场商贩掌握了改善生计和增强经济韧性的知识、信心和金融工具。 参与者承诺在十个月内每月储蓄180所罗门元。完成项目后,澳新银行为每位参与者的储蓄提供配对资金,使女性能够购买她们通过澳新银行的MoneyMinded金融素养培训所识别的生产性资产和必要的家庭用品。 对于许多毕业生来说,该项目不仅改变了她们的财务状况,也改变了她们的心态。 “在参加这个项目之前,我只有在有剩余钱时才会储蓄。通过MoneyMinded培训,我学会了如何制定预算、设定财务目标并持续储蓄。完成这个项目让我有信心可以为我家人的未来规划,实现我曾认为无法达到的目标,”一位参与者分享道。霍尼亚拉市市场商贩贝蒂·伊苏(Ms Betty Isu)。 Saver Plus计划展示了将金融教育与实际激励相结合以促进持久行为改变的力量。通过定期储蓄、预算和财务规划,参与者已经养成了将继续惠及她们的习惯,远超项目的生命周期。 在毕业典礼上,联合国开发计划署所罗门群岛包容性增长团队负责人所罗门·卡卢(Mr Solomon Kalu)祝贺毕业生,并重申了联合国开发计划署对女性经济赋权的承诺。 “今天的毕业典礼不仅仅是完成一个储蓄项目。这是关于赋予女性信心、知识和机会,使她们能够做出明智的财务决策,增强她们的业务,并投资于更安全的未来。当女性获得经济赋权时,家庭繁荣,社区变得更加韧性,国家也会变得更强大。” 贝蒂·伊苏。 Grace PIko。 UNDP Martha Ossie。 UNDP 通过“变革市场”(Markets for Change)计划,联合国开发计划署(UNDP)继续与政府、地方当局、发展伙伴和私营部门合作,为女性创造更多包容性的经济机会,特别是那些在非正式经济中工作的女性。 该项目还反映了UNDP与澳新银行(ANZ Bank)长期合作关系的力量,其“MoneyMinded”金融素养项目帮助太平洋地区数千人提高了金融能力。通过在所罗门群岛推出Saver Plus计划,这一合作关系在金融教育的基础上迈出了重要一步,使参与者能够将新知识转化为有意义的金融资产。 另一位毕业生描述了在整个项目中所需的纪律。 “每个月储蓄180所罗门元并不总是容易,尤其是当家庭开支较多时。但培训鼓励我保持承诺,知道我们的储蓄会得到匹配激励我继续努力。今天,我为自己能够在不负债的情况下购买计划中的物品而感到自豪。”——市场商贩Grace Piko,霍尼亚拉市市场 该计划突显了合作伙伴关系在推动金融包容性和实现可持续发展成果中的重要作用。UNDP、澳新银行和霍尼亚拉市妇女事务部共同展示了如何通过协作方法为女性市场商贩及其家庭创造切实的利益。 除了个人成功故事,该项目还通过增强女性在经济中的参与、促进金融包容性以及支持更具韧性的家庭和社区,为更广泛的国家发展优先事项做出了贡献。 对于另一位参与者来说,该项目的影响超出了她自己的家庭。 “这个项目教会我,经济独立始于小而持续的步骤。我会在今天之后继续储蓄,并希望与社区中的其他女性分享我所学到的知识,以便她们也能改善生活,为家庭建设更美好的未来。”——市场商贩Martha Ossie,霍尼亚拉市市场 随着毕业生们开始他们财务旅程的下一章,Saver Plus 计划成为了一个强有力的例证,展示了当女性获得正确的知识、得到强有力的合作支持,并获得实用的金融机会时,可以实现的成就。 联合国开发计划署(UNDP)始终致力于与政府、私营部门和发展伙伴合作,扩大金融包容性,加强女性经济赋权,确保没有人被落下。 关于市场变革(M4C) 市场变革(M4C)计划通过促进包容性市场治理、加强女性领导力、改善生计和扩大经济机会,支持斐济、瓦努阿图、所罗门群岛和萨摩亚的女性市场商贩。在所罗门群岛,M4C与国家和地方合作伙伴紧密合作,创造更安全、更具包容性和经济赋权的市场环境,使女性能够获得赋权,并为她们的家庭和社区做出有意义的贡献。 如需更多信息,请联系:Jilgina Kimisi 女士,M4C 项目助理,联合国开发计划署所罗门群岛 | jilgina.kimisi@undp.org 和 Vilisi Veibataki 女士,市场变革项目经理,联合国开发计划署太平洋办公室 | vilisi.veibataki@undp.org | +679 3227701
The conversation continues and Pacific youth are ready to shape what comes next. Today, participants in the Pacific Youth Talanoa Series are building the skills, knowledge and confidence to influence climate action, from understanding how decisions are made to helping shape the Pacific Youth Communiqué ahead of Pre-COP31 and COP31. Opening Talanoa 2 of the series, Martin Wandera, Director of the International Labour Organization for the Pacific Island Countries, challenged participants to move from being consulted to shaping outcomes, encouraging them to carry what they learn into the spaces where climate decisions are made. We were honoured to welcome Sally Higgins, COP31 Presidency Youth Climate Champion, who reminded participants that while global forums help set ambition, real climate action happens every day in Pacific communities. She encouraged young people to keep leading, innovating and sharing their lived experiences, while creating more opportunities for other youth voices to be heard. Fiji's Permanent Secretary for Environment and Climate Change, Dr Sivendra Michael, also joined the Talanoa, providing participants with an overview of the UNFCCC and COP processes, the role of Pre-COP, and how Pacific youth can align their advocacy with Fiji's Pre-COP priorities. His session encouraged participants to see themselves not just as observers, but as contributors to a stronger and more unified Pacific voice on the global stage. Throughout the day, participants put these ideas into practice, exploring how climate decisions are made, strengthening their advocacy skills and refining the Pacific Youth Communiqué, a youth-led document that will help carry Pacific priorities into the lead-up to Pre-COP31 and COP31. The Pacific Youth Talanoa Series is co-designed and co-led by the UN in Fiji, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu & Vanuatu and the Pacific Youth Council in partnership with Pasifika Communities University and other regional organisations.
对话继续,太平洋青年准备塑造未来。 今天,参与太平洋青年Talanoa系列活动的成员正在提升技能、知识和信心,以影响气候行动,从理解决策过程到帮助制定太平洋青年公报,为预COP31和COP31做准备。 在系列活动的第二场Talanoa中,国际劳工组织太平洋岛国主任马丁·万德拉(Martin Wandera)挑战参与者从被咨询者转变为结果的塑造者,鼓励他们将所学带入气候决策的场所。 我们荣幸地欢迎COP31主席青年气候冠军萨莉·希金斯(Sally Higgins),她提醒参与者,尽管全球论坛有助于设定目标,但真正的气候行动每天都在太平洋社区中发生。她鼓励年轻人继续领导、创新和分享他们的生活经历,同时为其他青年声音创造更多被听到的机会。 斐济环境与气候变化常务秘书西文德拉·迈克尔博士(Dr Sivendra Michael)也参加了Talanoa,为参与者提供了关于《联合国气候变化框架公约》(UNFCCC)和COP流程的概述,预COP的角色,以及太平洋青年如何将他们的倡导与斐济的预COP优先事项对齐。他的发言鼓励参与者不仅要将自己视为观察者,更要作为全球舞台上更强大、更统一的太平洋声音的贡献者。 在当天的活动中,参与者将这些理念付诸实践,探索气候决策的形成,增强他们的倡导技能,并完善太平洋青年公报,这是一份由青年主导的文件,将帮助在预COP31和COP31之前传达太平洋的优先事项。 太平洋青年Talanoa系列活动由联合国在斐济、所罗门群岛、汤加、图瓦卢和瓦努阿图共同设计和主办,并与太平洋青年理事会及其他地区组织合作。
PRIME MINISTER WALE COMMITS SUPPORT TO SUSTAIN DREAMCAST YOUTH HUB PRIME Minister Hon. Matthew Wale has reaffirmed the Government’s commitment to supporting the Dreamcast Theatre Solomon Islands, recognising its critical role as a leading youth-driven arts and cultural hub in Honiara. During a meeting today with the organisation’s executive, the Prime Minister was briefed on the immediate challenges facing the hub, particularly the rising cost of commercial rent that threatens its long-term sustainability. Dreamcast Theatre Co-founder and Creative Director, Mr Neil Nuia, outlined the organisation’s 20-year journey, highlighting its growth into a respected institution that empowers young Solomon Islanders through theatre, filmmaking, photography and music. Mr Nuia said the hub currently accommodates between 60 to 80 young people daily and supports a wider network of more than 300 youths nationwide. “We use creative arts for social advocacy, capacity building and leadership development,” he said. He noted that despite ongoing financial pressures, the organisation remains committed to continuing its work and impact. In response, Prime Minister Wale acknowledged the importance of the hub as a vital space for youth development and creative expression. “The theatre has always been there. It’s the only creative cultural space we have for our young people, and the Government recognises its importance,” the Prime Minister said. He confirmed that the Government will engage relevant ministries, including the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (MCT) and the Ministry of Women, Youth, Children and Family Affairs (MWYCFA), to work with stakeholders toward addressing the hub’s sustainability challenges. - PRESS RELEASE [ENDS]
总理瓦尔承诺支持维持梦幻青年中心 总理马修·瓦尔(Hon. Matthew Wale)重申了政府对支持梦幻剧院所罗门群岛(Dreamcast Theatre Solomon Islands)的承诺,认可其作为霍尼亚拉(Honiara)领先的青年驱动艺术和文化中心的重要角色。 在今天与该组织高管的会议上,总理了解了该中心面临的紧迫挑战,特别是不断上涨的商业租金威胁其长期可持续性。 梦幻剧院的联合创始人兼创意总监尼尔·努亚(Mr Neil Nuia)概述了该组织20年的发展历程,强调其成长为一个尊重的机构,通过戏剧、电影制作、摄影和音乐赋能年轻的所罗门群岛人。 努亚表示,该中心目前每天接纳60到80名年轻人,并支持全国超过300名青年的更广泛网络。 “我们利用创意艺术进行社会倡导、能力建设和领导力发展,”他说。 他指出,尽管面临持续的财务压力,该组织仍然致力于继续其工作和影响。 对此,总理瓦尔承认该中心作为青年发展和创意表达的重要空间。 “剧院一直存在。它是我们年轻人唯一的创意文化空间,政府认识到其重要性,”总理说。 他确认,政府将与相关部门合作,包括文化和旅游部(MCT)以及妇女、青年、儿童和家庭事务部(MWYCFA),与利益相关者共同努力解决该中心的可持续性挑战。 - 新闻稿 [完]

BY NED GAGAHE The Women in Executive Leadership Solomon Islands (WELSI) has renewed its call for greater representation of women in senior executive and decision-making positions, saying stronger partnerships and institutional support are needed to break barriers to leadership. The call was made during WELSI’s Women Connect Breakfast and Panel Discussion Networking Event at Heritage Park Hotel in Honiara on Thursday, July 9. The event brought together women leaders, government officials, private sector representatives, development partners and educational institutions to discuss challenges facing women in leadership and to identify practical pathways to increase women’s participation in executive roles. Panel discussions focused on the progress and gaps in women’s representation, barriers to advancement into higher decision-making positions, leadership development and executive capacity building, mentorship and sponsorship, institutional support, and opportunities to strengthen women’s leadership pathways. WELSI President Pamela Naesol Alamu in a statement said the discussions provided participants with a clearer understanding of the opportunities and strategies needed to support women aspiring to leadership positions. “The dialogue created stronger partnerships and collaboration among stakeholders and renewed engagement and strengthened networks among WELSI members and women leaders across sectors,” she said. Delivering the keynote address, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Women, Youth, Children and Family Affairs (MWYCFA) Aaron Pitaqae said promoting women into higher decision-making roles is not only a matter of fairness but also a strategic necessity for national development. “While challenges remain, the opportunities for enriched leadership and societal progress are immense. By addressing structural barriers, challenging biases, and fostering supportive environments, we can unlock the full potential of women leaders and drive meaningful change across all sectors. “As members of our society, women deserve respect and recognition. This is not just about recognising women because they are part of us; it is about making meaningful change because it will benefit everyone. Government and organisations must now accept that women’s participation can have a positive impact,” Mr Pitaqae said. Participants highlighted several barriers that continue to limit women’s progression into leadership positions. These include deeply rooted patriarchal attitudes and traditional gender roles that view leadership as a male responsibility, limited access to professional networks and mentoring opportunities, gender bias in recruitment and promotion processes, and the challenge of balancing leadership responsibilities with family and community obligations. Despite these challenges, the forum acknowledged that positive progress has been made through national policies and programmes that aim to support women to advance into leadership roles. WELSI said it will continue to facilitate dialogue and collaboration with key stakeholders to promote inclusive leadership and create more opportunities for women to progress into senior executive and decision-making positions across the country.

作者:内德·加加赫 所罗门群岛女性高层领导组织(WELSI)重申了对女性在高级执行和决策职位中更大代表性的呼吁,表示需要更强的合作伙伴关系和机构支持,以打破领导障碍。 这一呼吁是在WELSI于7月9日星期四在霍尼亚拉的遗产公园酒店举办的女性联接早餐和小组讨论网络活动中提出的。 此次活动汇聚了女性领导者、政府官员、私营部门代表、发展伙伴和教育机构,讨论女性在领导中面临的挑战,并确定增加女性在高层角色中参与的实际途径。 小组讨论集中于女性代表性的进展和差距、晋升到更高决策职位的障碍、领导力发展和执行能力建设、指导和赞助、机构支持,以及加强女性领导途径的机会。 WELSI主席帕梅拉·纳索尔·阿拉穆在声明中表示,讨论为参与者提供了更清晰的理解,了解支持有志于领导职位的女性所需的机会和策略。 “对话促进了利益相关者之间更强的合作伙伴关系和协作,并重新激活了WELSI成员和各领域女性领导者之间的联系网络,”她说。 在主题演讲中,妇女、青年、儿童和家庭事务部(MWYCFA)常务秘书亚伦·皮塔凯表示,促进女性进入更高决策角色不仅是公平的问题,也是国家发展的战略必要性。 “尽管挑战依然存在,但丰富的领导机会和社会进步的潜力是巨大的。通过解决结构性障碍、挑战偏见和营造支持性环境,我们可以释放女性领导者的全部潜力,并推动各个领域的有意义变革。 “作为我们社会的一员,女性应当得到尊重和认可。这不仅仅是因为她们是我们的一部分而承认她们;而是因为创造有意义的变革将使每个人受益。政府和组织现在必须接受,女性的参与可以产生积极影响,”皮塔凯先生说。 与会者强调了继续限制女性晋升到领导职位的几个障碍。 这些障碍包括根深蒂固的父权态度和将领导视为男性责任的传统性别角色、有限的专业网络和指导机会、招聘和晋升过程中的性别偏见,以及平衡领导责任与家庭和社区义务的挑战。 尽管面临这些挑战,论坛承认通过旨在支持女性晋升到领导角色的国家政策和项目,已经取得了积极进展。 WELSI表示,将继续与关键利益相关者进行对话和合作,以促进包容性领导,并为女性在全国范围内晋升到高级执行和决策职位创造更多机会。 照片来源:WELSI 反馈请联系:gagahened@gmail.com 编辑:irwin3angiki@gmail.com
