Spent the day with students at Ba Muslim Primary school in #Fiji for the Pacific region’s first #CRC30 #WorldChildrensDay event, and just in time for the beginning of cyclone season. Wonderful discussions on improving disaster risk reduction in schools!

Fantastic to hear explicit references to the rights of children, and the fact that Fiji has ratified all nine of the core human rights conventions in H.E. President, Major General Retired Jioji Konrote's speech at today's opening session of Parliament.

Many children in the Pacific Islands are eating inadequate amounts of healthy food - and too much of what they shouldn't be eating. Find out more in The State of the World’s Children 2019 - uni.cf/sowc-2019

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the late PM of Tonga, the Hon. ‘Akilisi Pōhiva. We celebrate his life, & for being a passionate advocate for the rights of children and for combating climate change. He was a prominent advocate for all voices to be heard.
