Abstract:

This bachelor’s degree project was conducted as both a literature study and a Minor Field Study in Fiji. Today, many of Fiji's remote villages are supplied with electricity from diesel generators while others have no electricity at all. The project aims to examine the expected economical, ecological and social benefits of electrification using solar photovoltaic cells (PV). Earlier reports from around the world conclude that PV-systems are fully competitive with diesel generators economically. This study examined whether this was the case for Fiji as well.Among the aspects covered in the repor

In this dissertation, three different medicinal plants from Chile and the Fiji Islands, Baccharis linearis (R. et P.) Pers, Aristotelia chilensis (Mol.) Stuntz, and Dysoxylum lenticellare Gillespie were chemically studied. Fourteen compounds isolated from Baccharis linearis were identified based on IR, NMR and mass spectroscopic methods. These constituents included three new neo-clerodane type diterpenes, baclinal (1), baclinepoxide (2), and 13-epi-baclinepoxide (3), as well as one new perhydroazulene derivative, baclinic acid (6). The other identified compounds included portulide B (4), jewen

Abstract:

With the advancing issues relating to climate change, Fiji amongst other islands are in need of development to address these issues quickly. However, development must also relate to the socio-cultural aspects and avoid pacifying communities in their development. This project address these issues for a rural village in Fiji, proposing a design relevant to the indigenous community as well as a work process for developers.

Abstract:

The first cut batter failures along the Queens Road, Viti Levu occurred in 1979 following a prolonged high precipitation event. This has continued to occur through to 2009 and this thesis research is centred on understanding the mechanisms of recurring cut batter failures occurring at Namuka i lau and Wainigasau. The Namuka i lau and Wainigasau cut batters are cut into highly weathered polymict conglomerates belonging to the Veisari Sandstone. Each site comprises three benches at approximately 9 m in height. The Namuka i lau benches are 1 m wide with 50ºslope faces and the Wainigasau benches a

Abstract:

The transformation period between intrastate civil conflicts has been primarily examined within sporadic case studies. A lack of macro theory in the field of Peacebuilding has led to a predisposition towards policy-friendly academic works. The policy changes and studies that get suggested take advantage of hindsight and are often case specific. Without allowing for the variances in differing post-conflict situations the changes struggle to provide usable theoretical works. This field requires accurate comparative studies, but the dominance of micro theoretical casework has undermined any large

Abstract:

The central question the thesis asks is how ready is the Fijian Government to respond to climate-induced cross border relocation of the Pacific Island communities from Kiribati and Tuvalu to Fiji? The thesis synthesises and analyses different sources of data to conceptualise and articulate a set of criteria for readiness that has not been explained elsewhere in the literature for climate change migration readiness. Extensive work remains for Fiji to meet the readiness criteria, which encompass: the role of law for cross-border relocation, institutional capacity, coordination, land availability

Access to electricity is an important factor for rural development as many needs and services such as education, health care and water supply all have energy requirements. The aim of this study was to develop a sustainable electrification system based on renewable energy for the remote village Keteira on Moala Island, Fiji. Keteira does not currently have any reliable electricity supply, but the Fijian Government has set ambitious goals regarding electricity access and the renewable share in the power generation which led to the conclusion that Keteira in the near future will have access to el

In particular, the study investigates the importance of trade and industrial development, both by the public and private sectors, in stimulating economic development, and shows how much each has contributed towards t

Abstract:

With the onset of the independence of the Pacific Island States, the role of the mass media and their developmental processes began to be examined. This was of particular interest due to the obvious lack of a sufficient native media infrastructure to meet the demands of an indigenous population who were being introduced to a new world sphere and system. The main problem of mass media development in the Pacific lies in the fact that the nations in this area are still relatively behind in the basic structures of media participation. They lack technological knowledge of the various forms of media

Abstract:

Anthropogenic climate change and environmental degradation impacts are no longer a worry for the distant future but a real concern for the present. Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and the poor, who often live by fragile ecosystems, are amongst the most vulnerable and exposed to the impacts of climate change. For these populations, climate related risks exacerbate other stressors and negatively impact livelihoods, security, and health. For low lying SIDS in particular, an additional fear is that climate change endangers their whole way of life, with their nationhood and culture being slow

This thesis examines how global development goals affect Fijian plans and policy strategies to achieve food security. The concept of food security is vast and complex, as several development issues contribute to the difficulty in achieving such security. It is therefore relevant to look at some of the dominating and underlying causes that challenge the possibility for Fiji to achieve food security. Built on previous theoretical and empirical evidence, this thesis identifies poverty and vulnerability as two dominant causes that hinder food security on Fiji. However, other causes, both internal

The connections between these island groups in the period between the 1770s and the 1870s are examined in extensive detail. In particular, this analysis takes the theoretical framework of the world-systems approach of Chase-Dunn and Hall and applies a method involving networks of exchange to this region. These networks include the information network, the bulk products network, the political/ military network and the netw

In the South Pacific, an area prone to disasters of many kinds, tropical cyclones are predicted to increase in strength, track length and lifespan due to climate change.

These communities are out of reach of many aid organisations, and are required to be more selfreliant and resilient than most. This thesis investigat

Subduction began in response to establishment of an E-W orientated spreading ridge at -7Ma across the North Fiji Basin, and the accompanying anticlockwise rotation of the Fiji Platform.

Bark-cloth is the traditional art of the women of Vatulele. Though many Fijian artforms have declined or disappeared, Vatulele's production of bark-cloth has increased steadily for over forty years. Its commercialisation as a tourist souvenir has been widely credited for this, but it is shown here that while this did initially stimulate production, today it accounts for a relatively small proportion of output, most remaining within the indigenous domain.

Renewable energy technologies have been advocated in Fiji's electricity sector on the basis that they improve energy security and serve as a risk-mitigation measure against oil price increases. This follows a decade of significant oil price volatility and historically high oil prices, which negatively affected the oil-dependent electricity sector in Fiji and other Small Island Developing States in the Pacific. This dissertation examines the extent to which renewable technologies can improve energy security in the electricity grid and in rural off-grid areas of Fiji. The main contributions from
