FNU graduates urged to put new skills into practice

Graduates from the Fiji National University’s sustainable livelihood programme were encouraged to put their new skills into practice.

This programme was offered in two districts of Rotuma.

Gagaj Iroa reminded the new graduates that learning never stops, encouraging them to pursue higher education and to share their knowledge with fellow villagers.

He says there is no age limit to learning nor is there one that says learning comes to an end at a certain age.
162 graduates successfully completed a two-week training on basic practical skills.

The Sustainable Livelihood Project is Government’s initiative that was set-up five years ago to promote development in rural and maritime communities through technical and vocational trainings.

The primary objective of the project is to train and empower rural communities and villages with basic practical skills and knowledge that are relevant and necessary to their immediate and future needs.
