New Zealand’s second secretary Constance Minett has assured northern communities of their government’s commitment to the newly-launched Climate Resilient Islands Program.

The program, launched in Labasa this morning, will be spearheaded by the Live and Learn team targeting six villages on Vanua Levu – Dreketi, Naiqaqi, Valeni in Cakaudrove, Vitina, Naibulu and Nawailevu in the two provinces of Macuata and Bua.

Ms Minett said climate change issues had been discussed many times in the Pacific and such commitment from her government proved they were serious about helping locals.

Live and Learn executive Christian Nielsen thanked the communities for working with his team.
