After an introductory visit to Fiji earlier this year ACHR is beginning to work in supporting the PCN in Fiji in their aim to assist dwellers in informal settlements to upgrade their own communities.
As part of this process several community architects from the Pacific region will be based in Fiji from the 16th of July until the 10th of October. During this time these representatives will help facilitate community surveying and mapping in Fiji and work together in this with community members and the PCN in building on the existing networks of local technical professionals (engineers, architects etc), academics and students supporting the communities process.
