“I am very excited to be the ambassador for climate change. I feel like it’s one of the biggest issues faced by every country in the region and so Iam excited to take it on.”

“I do realise that there’s a lot of NGO’s and programmes within communities that have already addressed the issue, so I hope to just step into one of those projects and hopefully do something next year that would end up changing at least one activity or at least one way climate change affects us as a region.”

Dunn says it’s important for all Pacific women to hold on to their roots and traditions which make them unique.
