SUVA (Pacific Media Centre): This year, the University of the South Pacific (USP) is celebrating 50 years since its opening in 1968.

The university’s first campus was established at Laucala Bay in Suva, with a student count of 200 - it now accommodates more than 30,000 students across the different campuses within the Pacific region.

The university’s 1999 strategic plan also saw the establishment of the Pacific Centre for Environment and Sustainable Development (PaCE-SD).

The centre was opened to implement more research of the region’s environment and has continued to raise awareness about climate change and sustainable development in the Pacific.

Interviewees include:
PaCE-SD director Professor Elisabeth Holland
Deputy director Dr Morgan Wairiu
