Abstract
Fiji, like many island nations, is under immediate threat from climate change and other environmental issues, and also faces challenges in creating good career opportunities for young people and others. In an effort to address these issues in Fiji, as well as in Kiribati and Vanuatu, the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) embarked on a new programme in 2018 known as Pacific Greenpreneurs. This programme was designed to help prospective entrepreneurs develop green business ideas and help them develop the skills they need to bring these ideas to fruition and make an impact on green growth in their country. GGGI believes that harnessing the energy of the young – and the “young at heart” – through private sector innovation is crucial to developing strong, sustainable economies and addressing environmental issues. Fiji has ambitious goals for the future, and will need all hands on deck to meet these goals through innovation, creativity, and hard work.
