Through a climate resiliency project funded by @BMZ_Bund, villagers of Nadolodolo are upbeat that the finalization of their Tavua District's #SDPlan will provide opportunities for #DRR capacity building such as first aid training & building codes to withstand strong wind energy!

Support from @BMZ_Bund empowers community reps of Vatutavui village to finalize their #FisheriesManagementPlan for healthy fisheries. #SustainableFisheries #TavuaSustainableDevelopmentPlans #GreatSeaReef

A contributing factor to frequent flooding is the blockage of waterways from debris, that are washed from upstream as results of unsustainable land use practices.I guess this debris will remove itself in the next flood(after some major damages) #clearourwaterways #healthyrivers

Despite it being late in the evening, Vatutavui villagers determined to review their draft #DRR & #FisheriesManagement Plans that will feed into their 1st ever #SD plan for the district of Tavua! Possible through @BMZ_Bund funding! 👊
