PRF has been approached by various stakeholders in Taveuni seeking solutions for their waste management issues.

PRF is collaborating closely with the Taveuni Tourism Association, GIZ, the Ministry of Trade, Co-operatives, Small and Medium Enterprises, and Tourism Fiji.

The Foundation is planning a stakeholder consultation in Taveuni, next month to gather input and determine the most effective waste management solutions.
