Close to 50 Government officials, key stakeholders, and civil society representatives gathered to discuss Fiji’s Low Emissions Development Strategy.

Agriculture Permanent Secretary David Kolitagane says this platform is aimed to inform stakeholders on final emission scenarios and actions that have been developed to achieve net-zero emissions through to 2050.

Kolitagane says the essence of Fiji’s LEDS is to clearly state the vision of a low carbon and climate resilient Fiji by 2050.

The LEDS program began in February this year with follow workshops to discuss specific long-term mitigation strategies for the different sectors of the Fijian economy.
