Priorities of the People: Hardship in the Fiji Islands
The unstable political situation in Fiji, coupled with a young population, increasing migration to the urban centers and overseas, and weak international markets for sugar and kava, poses serious challenges to improving basic services, job opportunities, and the standard of living. To better understand the nature of hardship in Tuvalu, the government undertook a Participatory Assessment of Hardship in 2003 with assistance from the Asian Development Bank. The assessment identified the needs and priorities of people living in communities throughout the country with different levels of access to services such as education, health, markets, transportation, water, and sanitation. The online edition is free of charge. An applicable shipping and handling fee will be charged for hard copy orders of this publication.
