Raising Pacific Voices is in Vanuatu this week to hear from its partner Vatu Mauri Consortium, a grouping consisting of the four Vanuatu major councils representing the women, chiefs, churches and youth.

The activities included discussions around assessing the capacity needs of Vatu Mauri Consortium and its member constituents at multiple levels of decision-making.

This is a follow-up visit aimed at assessing the capacity needs of Vatu Mauri Consortium so they are able to prioritise these needs and work on an organisational strengthening plan coming out of this process.

This activity is supported by the European Union in the Pacific. Photos: Ricardo Morris and Priyajit Samaiyar/Oxfam in the Pacific
