Fisheries Western and Research officials have held discussions with Vomo Island Resort on a potential partnership to boost marine conservation and eco-tourism in Fiji.
The meeting focused on the Olive Ridley Turtle Project, a science-driven initiative already established in the Maldives, with plans to expand into Fiji.
The project combines research, conservation and tourism, offering a model that supports both environmental protection and economic growth.
The Ministry says the proposal aligns with its priorities, particularly the protection of key marine species and promoting sustainable, science-based tourism.
Further discussions are expected as both sides explore opportunities to develop the partnership.
