The Fiji Government is committed to ensuring that carbon market engagement in Fiji is facilitated in a context sensitive manner, ensuring outcomes and approaches are well suited to Fiji’s circumstances, cultures and contexts.

Due to Fiji’s high sensitivity and vulnerability to climate change and negligible current and historical emissions, Fiji will priorities emissions reductions in activities that increase national resilience and help leverage co-benefits that support the achievement of our sustainable development objectives.

This Strategy Roadmap provides an important overview of carbon market options, opportunities, risks, and priority actions which will help guide further policy development in Fiji and provides a basis for our interactions with new market-based opportunities. Carbon markets are an additional rather than primary means to increase investment in sustainable development and must be carefully navigated by our national stakeholders.

This Strategy Roadmap recognises that carbon market activities involve risks that must be considered and evaluated against potential benefits. Its action plan identifies nationally-led and context-appropriate strategic approaches to minimise carbon market engagement risks and maximise the benefits derived from carbon markets.
