- Summary:
- In April 2012 the township of Nadi, located on the western coastline of Fiji's main island Viti Levu, experienced devastating flooding. Due to it's vulnerability to flooding over the years, Nadi has been identified as the first priority for an integrated water resources management (IWRM) demonstration project in Fiji. This documentary demonstrates how the five year project harnesses the coordinated efforts of all sectors of society in the sustainable management and development of water, land and related resources whilst also addressing the urgent need to improve flood management and preparedness.
