About Me: A young environmental leader for my island community with a science background in coral reef ecology and climate change adaptation. I coordinate a voluntary, community-based environmental education and awareness outreach program on the home island, Rotuma; a remote small island off the main Fiji Group of islands in the South Pacific. My Passions: my people and exploring my cultural heritage My Challenges: understanding the evolving dynamics of human communities and their responses to both natural, social and economic changes to their lives. My Vision for the Future: building and supporting a sustainable island community that moves beyond making choices when it comes to development of their resources My Areas of Expertise: coral reef ecology and climate change adaptation
