Last year, our SHAPE-CAR team, in partnership with the iTaukei Affairs Board, continued the review of Integrated Village Development Plans (IVDP) in Rewa. These five-year plans play a crucial role in empowering communities to take meaningful action, ensuring sustainable and indigenous-led development.

Through SHAPE-CAR, we champion Sustainable Health, Agriculture, Protection, Empowerment, Climate Action, and Resilience, strengthening community-driven progress and climate resilience.

This initiative is made possible through the generous support of the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade via ADRA New Zealand.

Last year, our dedicated team of enumerators conducted the Baseline Survey for the SHAPE-CAR project in Rewa province. This year, the project continues to drive meaningful change, building on that foundation to create lasting impact! 🚶‍♂️📊

Key Areas of Impact:
✅ Building Climate Resilience – Helping communities adapt to climate change and strengthen their ability to withstand environmental challenges.
✅ Sustainable Health & Agriculture Livelihoods – Equipping individuals with skills and opportunities for long-term food security and income generation.
✅ Cultural Sensitivity Training – Promoting awareness of cultural responsibilities to enhance community relationships and unity.
✅ Value-Added Training – Teaching communities how to develop products that boost food security and economic opportunities.

SHAPE-CAR, supported by the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade through ADRA New Zealand 🇳🇿, focuses on Sustainable Health, Agriculture, Protection of the Environment, and Climate Action Resilience.

Together, we’re working towards a stronger, more resilient future for our communities! 💪🌱

Our project, WIIRAP Fiji, recently conducted a Value Add and Business Continuity Plan Training in the communities of Naisogowaluvu, Waigasa, and Nabuli on Monday. Each community had over 20 participants, with the majority being women.

The training focuses on enhancing disaster resilience among women by equipping them with income-generating skills, such as creating value-added products and developing continuity plans for their small businesses.

➡️ This training gives women 👩‍🌾👩‍🍳 the opportunity to build sustainable livelihoods 🌱 and strengthen their ability to recover from challenges 🔄.

🤝 With support from the UN Women Pacific Resilience to Disasters (WRD) program, ADRA Fiji is dedicated to empowering communities and promoting long-term resilience.
