Tourism in Fiji is more than travel, it is a vital part of our economy and a powerful driver of community development.

🌴 Fiji is among the world’s top 20 most tourism-dependent countries.
📊 Tourism contributes nearly 40% of GDP, directly and indirectly.
👩🏽‍🍳 It supports one in three jobs across the country.

In Vanua Levu, tourism is one of the few sectors offering formal jobs and business opportunities, particularly for women and rural communities. This makes it a key pathway for inclusive and sustainable growth.

💡 A 2023 World Bank study found that even a 1% increase in tourism GDP is linked to a 0.68% reduction in poverty.

This is why the Na Vualiku Project is investing in better infrastructure, community tourism, and environmental protection ~ to help unlock tourism’s full potential for the people of Vanua Levu and Taveuni.

Tourism that lifts everyone benefits everyone.
