Determined to promote change and contribute towards mitigating the effects of climate change in Fiji, Tevita Dakuiboca participated in Fiji’s first National Youth Climate Action summit in Suva last month.
The Lokia Youth Club president said he believed starting awareness at grassroots level could lead to big changes in the near future.
“I look after the youth club in my village where we try to do work which will help protect our village and our country from the impacts of climate change,” he said.
“As Lokia Village is located near the Rewa River, whenever it is high tide the village gets flooded and this affects us all.”
