The Laselevu village in Nagonenicolo district, Naitasiri province will witness new developments take shape to steer positive changes in the lives of women and children in this rural community.
This after the Minister for Social Welfare Dr Jiko Luveni visited Laselevu village this week to officially launch the Zero Tolerance Violence Free Community Campaign.
The village leaders were presented with a certificate of commitment by Dr Luveni, which marked the beginning of 8 to 10 months of awareness programs that will be undertaken by the Ministry and the Fiji Police Force in partnership with relevant stakeholders, such as Empower Pacific.
Laselevu Women’s Group has also secured financial assistance from Government amounting to $6000 for building a women’s centre and canteen to start new income generating projects.
