  • Samoa's Smooth Transition Strategy Report
    Samoa’s smooth transition srategy report SAMOA’S SMOOTH TRANSITION STRATEGY REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2016 1 OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF THE TRANSITION PROCESS Background: Samoa graduated out of LDC status on 1st January 2014. The Government decided that the best transition strategy following graduation would be to ensure that it was able to fully implement itsnational development strategy namely the Strategy for the Development of Samoa through the sector programming framework with subsequent sectoral resource allocation. 2016 is the final year of the current Strategy for the Development of Samoa (2012‐2016). The following are lines of action that might require external support Samoa may continue to be in need of. Samoa’s smooth transition strategy consolidates the gains already made through this support, and have been taken into consideration toward smooth transition modalities as outlined as follows: Develop and formulate a coherent national development strategy – the new national development strategy for 2016‐2020 is under preparation – public consultations began in January 2016 and was launched in November 2016. The National development strategy is the basis for shifting to sustainable development. The SDS identifies the priority outcomes we think are right for the next four years and outlines the programs and actions we will implement to achieve those priority outcomes. We have aligned the direction of the strategy with the globally agreed Sustainable Development Goals and Small Island Developing States Accelerated Modality of Action (SAMOA) Pathway adopted in Samoa in 2014 by the Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and supported by the United Nations. In shaping the SDS and determining the priority outcomes that are right for Samoa over the next four years, Government has consulted widely with community and industry groups.

  • The Influence of Religion and Culture on Planning and Decision-Making Processes in Samoa
    The Influence of Religion and Culture on Planning and Decision-making Processes in Samoa Ekrina Melenuutausi Iose A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Planning at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand November 2nd 2018 i ABSTRACT Culture and religion form the foundation for all political, economic and social organisations in the Pacific Island nation of Samoa, and are inextricably linked (So’o, 2008). They are two of the most fundamental aspects present in the everyday lives of Samoan people. Both aspects dictate the day to day routines and practices of Samoa’s people whether it is in the home, workplace, or social setting. The importance of religion is reflected in the national emblem which states ‘E faavae I le Atua Samoa’ which translates to ‘Samoa is founded in God’. Culture is also important and this is highlighted in the way Samoan people are determined not to abandon their customs and traditions and so, instead of evolving into a government based completely on western democracy, the two world views were combined. It was a case of western democracy meets Samoan customs and traditions, and this is how Samoa has been governed ever since. The overall aim of this study was to establish the extent to which religion and culture influence planning and decision-making processes in Samoa. To answer this aim, four key questions were established. These questions looked at the significance of religion in Samoa, the nature of the relationship between religion and government, the influence religion has on planning and decision-making processes, and lastly, the hierarchy of importance in government of religion and culture.

Ministry of Finance Economic Policy and Planning Division Private Mail Bag Apia SAMOA Tel: 34-333 Fax: 21-312 E-Mail: [email protected] JANUARY 2005 MESSAGE FROM THE DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER AND MINISTER OF FINANCE In line with the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act 2001, it is a great pleasure for me to present the Strategy for the Development of Samoa (SDS) for the period 2005–2007. This document clearly articulates the priority strategic areas that will guide Samoa’s development for the 2005-07 period. This document reflects a continuation of the reform program implemented over the past SDS periods. Of greater importance, it presents clearly the key issues and concerns faced by the wider Samoan community - the issues that matter to the community and critical for achieving a better quality of life for everyone. In support of the principles of good governance, the preparation of this document was widely consultative. It involved a number of sector consultation meetings with a wide range of stakeholders which included Church Leaders, Pulenuu, women’s committees, farmers and fishermen, non-government organisations, youth groups, tourism industry, education and health stakeholders, the business community as well as government ministries and corporations. Consultations were carried out in Savaii to facilitate participation and contribution of Savaii residents, with the final National Stakeholder Summit held in October in Upolu. The views expressed at these consultation meetings formed the platform for the priority strategic areas highlighted in the document.
