- Across Fiji, communities are facing difficult decisions as climate-related impacts threaten their homes, livelihoods and water security.
Fiji’s Permanent Secretary for Environment and Climate Change, Dr Sivendra Michael, says 42 communities have been identified for possible relocation, with 17 considered high priority and two currently being relocated.
Vunidogoloa, one of Fiji’s earliest examples of climate-related relocation, had originally planned to move in 2012. Following delays, the entire village relocated inland in January 2014 after years of coastal flooding, erosion and saltwater intrusion.
But relocation is more than moving houses. Research shows it can also affect health, livelihoods, cultural connections and community wellbeing.
