Our Bespoke Approach
The most unique aspect to Think Pacific is that we deliver projects nationally, across all provinces of Fiji’s 330 islands. We focus upon advocacy, training and empowering Fijian youths to deliver aims within their own communities. directed by The Fijian Ministry of Youth and Sports, The Fijian Ministry of Health and The National Employment Centre Fiji.
Every team visits a different location and supports a different village setting and youth group. This model allows our charity to have a wider and more sustainable impact. Rather than focusing upon just one village in Fiji, this model means we can collaborate with, learn from and help to inspire thousands of young adults and children annually, providing wide spread messages of education, sport, health, employability and well-being. We ensure the delivery of the governments’ aims and continuity of programmes rest in the hands of ambitious local people. It is a respectful and locally empowering method, which has been handcrafted by our charity and The Fijian government for over a decade to achieve core national aims and foster local achievement.
This also creates a phenomenal experience for our volunteers. You are often the first ever team of volunteers your community has hosted. This brings a unique buzz of excitement – it develops your personal connection to the village, a unique learning environment, a real and honest cultural insight and life-long memories for everyone.

Think Pacific is different. As a UK social enterprise (Think Pacific) and a registered Fijian charitable Trust (Think Pacific Foundation), with over 100 annual staff in Fiji, we provide whole oversight and accountability of the project and wider local aims of training, monitoring and sustainability.
“We are the adviser before you leave, the ground operator when you arrive, and the local charity ensuring sustainability after you depart.”
