This was the central focus of the Weather Ready Nation Workshop 2025, which began yesterday and brought together government agencies, development partners, and key stakeholders to review hazards, vulnerabilities, and sector priorities shaping Fiji’s disaster preparedness.
Presentations were delivered by the Fiji Meteorological and Hydrological Service on impact-based forecasting and warning criteria, while the National Disaster Risk Management Office highlighted its critical role in national coordination and emergency response.
The workshop was officially opened by the Deputy Secretary of Operations from the Ministry of Public Works, alongside Weather Ready Nation Fiji Coordinator, Rochelle Campbell, who both stressed the importance of timely and accurate warnings in enabling informed, life-saving decisions.
