Fiji National Action Plan to Prevent Violence Against All Women and Girls
Fiji National Action Plan to Prevent Violence Against All Women and Girls
Violence against women and girls is not inevitable—it is preventable. The Fiji National Action Plan (Fiji NAP) is a bold, evidence-based roadmap designed to stop violence before it starts. As the first national plan of its kind in the Pacific, it represents Fiji’s commitment to tackling the root causes of violence and creating safer communities for all.
Grounded in Fijian values, culture, and context, the Fiji NAP is informed by extensive consultations with communities, experts, and survivors. It outlines practical strategies to shift harmful social norms, strengthen institutions, and create environments where women and girls can thrive free from violence.
A whole-of-government and whole-of-population initiative, led by the Ministry of Women, Children, and Social Protection, and funded by the Government of Australia and supported by the Fiji Program Support Platform of ABT. Implemented in collaboration with key partners FWCC, House of Sarah, FWRM and DIVA for Equality, the Fiji NAP PVAWG takes a whole-of-society approach, engaging government, civil society, faith-based organizations, the private sector, and communities in a coordinated prevention effort.
Together, we can build a Fiji free from violence.
