Country Profile The Republic of the Fiji Islands is a Pacific Island Country (PIC) with a population of close to a million people; and is located about two-thirds of the way from Hawaii to New Zealand. The country is composed of 332 islands, many of which are large and have high elevation. Most of the population, however, lives near the coasts, making sea-level rise an important risk. In addition, the Fijian economy is heavily dependent on the sugar and tourism industries, both of which are susceptible to climate change. Adaptation planning is underway in Fiji, but few projects have reached the implementation phase. Fiji has one of the largest economies in the region, is one of PICs least dependent on foreign aid, and generating income through tourism, sugar and exports of natural resources. Fiji is a multiethnic, multi- faith society, influenced by Pacific, Indian, European and Asian traditions. Due to unrest in 1987, 2000 and 2006, the political situation in Fiji remains turbulent. Fiji faces the challenges of unplanned urban settlement, limited health awareness in remote areas, declining access to clean water and rising poverty. 1.1.1. The geography The Republic of the Fiji Islands, which includes the island of Rotuma, lies wholly within the southern tropics. The area included within Fiji's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is 1,163,272 square kilometres with only 18,274 square kilometres of land. It is made up of over 300 islands. Only 16% of this landmass is suitable for agriculture and is found mainly along the coastal plains, river deltas, and valleys. 3 Fiji's islands are volcanic formations, making the terrain primarily mountainous. The highest point on the main island reaches 1,324 m (4,344 ft). All of the islands together have 1,129 km (702 miles) of coastline. Over 90% of the population (850,000 people) live near the coast and in the two main islands of Viti Levu (10,429 sq. km) and Vanua Levu (5,556 sq. km) which have mountainous interiors. At the last census (2007) around 49% of the population still lived in rural areas but there is significant rural-urban movement. The combination of the prevailing south-easterly trade winds and these mountain ranges result in a distinct dry western side climate suited for sugar cane cultivation and a distinctive wet and humid eastern climate experienced in Suva, the capital city. Other main islands are Taveuni (470 sq. km), Kadavu (411 sq. km), Gau (140 sq. km) and Koro (104 sq. km). The second city in Fiji is Lautoka. Source: CIA - The World Factbook, IFRC 1.1.2. Foreign Relations Fiji’s central location within the South Pacific naturally makes it the location for many regional offices of international development partners, NGOs and FBOs. Regional agencies such as the Pacific Forum and the University of the South Pacific are also located in the country. In terms of telecommunications and airlines and shipping links Fiji is relatively well served compared to other Pacific countries. It is now the most popular tourist destination in the Pacific, outside Hawaii. Source: UNFPA Fiji has traditionally had close relations with its major trading partners Australia and New Zealand, even if the recent political situation had an impact on the relations between those 3 countries. Currently, a number of countries including Australia, New Zealand, and the United States have placed targeted sanctions on the interim government.
