Happy Chickens for Fiji Food & Climate Emergency!
Organization information
Corals for Conservation
Location: Samabula, Fiji
Summary
The worldwide pandemic, together with the negative impacts of climate change, have caused a food emergency in Fiji. Rural subsistence farmers have been severely stressed, as increasingly strong cyclones rake across the islands, destroying small farm plots and homes, and damaging coconut and other tree crops. The coral reefs are sustaining storm damage, and are being over-fished. We address poverty and hunger by providing islanders with foraging chickens as an alternative protein to reef fish.
