24/03/2014

Engaging Fiji’s youth to improve their knowledge on Fiji’s meteorological sector will be key priority at this year’s World Meteorological Day.

This year’s celebrations will be held on the 28th of March with the theme “Weather and Climate: Engaging Youth”.

“This will help plan and implement lasting solutions to mitigate the effect on their lives, livelihoods and environment,” the Fiji Meteorological Services director, Alipate Waqaicelua said.

The Ministry of Works, Transport and Public Utilities will be hosting this event from the Suva Meteorological Office in Vatuwaqa.

The celebration will also have an Open Day at the Suva Weather Office for the general public and media organisations are invited to ensure the rest of Fiji celebrates this global event.
