Description

Island Consulting is FSPI's programme to build the capacity of its affiliates and their staff through involvement in consulting work.

It is a financially independent business arm of FSPI, employs Pacific Islanders in regional and national short-term consulting work in a broad spectrum of community development areas, including natural resource management, disaster preparedness, community outreach and facilitation.

Island Consulting draws on expertise from both within the FSPI network and other regional organisations. FSPI links more experienced consultants with staff who have capacity, but limited opportunity to acquire experience of their own.
