Draubuta youth cluster pilot organic farm
From vision to harvest in just two years ! The Draubuta Youth Cluster, operating as Highland Youth Cooperative Limited in the highlands of Navosa, Fiji, has established a Pilot Organic Farm that stands as a model for youth-led, community-driven agriculture across the Pacific.
Founded in December 2024 following organic agriculture training through the Kiwa Pacific Organic Learning Farms Network (POLFN) project, this initiative demonstrates how investment in youth capacity building, combined with technical training and regional networks, can deliver tangible, sustainable outcomes at the community level. As climate pressures mount across Pacific Island nations, initiatives like the Draubuta Youth Cluster show that Nature-based Solutions and food sovereignty can go hand in hand.
