Sharing the City: Urban Growth and Governance in Suva, Fiji. In SSGM Discussion Paper 2016/6

Abstract

Fiji is the most urbanised state in Melanesia. Its main city, Suva, is facing many challenges of rapid growth. With more than 50 per cent of its population now living in its cities and that number set to increase to about 60 per cent in the next decade, Suva officials and residents are working to address the pressures of urbanisation and to capitalise on its opportunities.
