Abstract
Fiji is the most urbanised state in Melanesia. Its
main city, Suva, is facing many challenges of rapid
growth. With more than 50 per cent of its population
now living in its cities and that number set to
increase to about 60 per cent in the next decade
(UN-Habitat 2012a), Suva officials and residents
are working to address the pressures of urbanisation
and to capitalise on its opportunities.
