RISE programme hopes to improve well-being of other settlements

Vakarewa says they are currently at the intervention stage at 6 settlements within the Suva/Nausori corridor.

The outcome of this pilot or first phase of the project will determine their next course of action.

“We are hoping to use data and information that we gather from the programme to work with government, policymakers and development organization in how we can replicate or bring certain programmes like this to scale in other informal settlements and in the wider community”.

Vakarewa says most informal settlements in urban centers are excluded from the centralized proper sanitation facilities.

This has prompted the RISE teams to improve the well-being of informal settlers hence, contributes to improving waste disposal and proper hygiene particularly, in these trying times.
