Fiji

A final evaluation of the DFAT-International Finance Corporation (IFC) Fiji Private Sector Development Partnership (FPSDP) was completed between March and May 2025 to assess the program’s effectiveness and progress towards its intended outcomes.

In November 2024, DFAT commissioned an independent evaluation of CRP to assess the overall performance of the CRP’s school rehabilitation component. The evaluation criteria included relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability to determine program performance against the end of program outcomes and identify best practice and recommendations. 

The purpose of the IPP Strategic Review (2024) was to assess progress of the IPP; and identify areas of strength and areas for improvement until the end of phase. 

Australia is partnering with Fiji to respond to the significant human development challenges it faces. We will continue to work closely with a wide range of partners, including UN agencies, multilateral and regional organisations, and CSOs that bring valuable expertise and experience in these sectors.

Australia will continue working in partnership with Fiji to support its regional ambitions, prioritise Pacific-led solutions to Pacific issues and support Fiji to manage the impacts of climate change. This objective encompasses our support for the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF), including the 2050 Strategy for the Blue Pacific Continent and the Boe Declaration on Regional Security.

Australia is committed to defence, police, border and security engagement that fosters a peaceful, secure and resilient Pacific, for the mutual benefit of both Australia and Fiji. Continuing to train, exercise and deploy together will help Australia and Fiji meet the expectation of PIF leaders that the Pacific region can manage regional security challenges.

Australia will work in partnership with the Government of Fiji to provide opportunities for Fijians and Australians to connect. Strong and dynamic people-to-people links are the bedrock of our partnership.

In 2023, Australia and Fiji renewed and elevated our Vuvale Partnership following consultation across the Australian and Fijian governments on agreed priorities. This DPP articulates how Australia will contribute to these shared priorities.
