He says, "Ïts not the same, now we can fish all night but it's difficult to even get 5 bundles."Iqbal's nephew, Ali showcase the difference in fish size.#uspnextgenradio #ClimateAction #USP #climatereporting pic.twitter.com/paf1XpIjCo— Sera Tikotikovatu-Sefeti (@SefetiSera) January 11, 2022Morning y'all Day #2#uspnextgenradio pic.twitter.com/7UlQNzLA4w— nextgenradio (@nextgenradio) January 10, 2022Proud of my mentee, Leila, reporting from her home village in Papua New Guinea.

So incredibly proud of the students for all their hard work and delivering great stories DESPITE the cyclone, electricity outages, flooding and, of course, rising COVID numbers.

Writing all the information you collect from an interview into a document can be fascinatingly refreshing and certainly puts things in perspective.— Sera Tikotikovatu-Sefeti (@SefetiSera) January 12, 2022I'm an NPR @nextgenradio mentor this month! I LOVE helping @UniSouthPacific students write stories about how climate change is impacting Fiji ✍️But I also spent most of yesterday coordinating interviews across 4 different time zones which made my head explode 🤯#USPNextGenRadio— Claire Caulfield ✨ (@CaulfieldCM) January 12, 2022I rarely come on Twitter, but I think this is worth a tweet. I'm honoured to be joining the Next Generation Radio workshop this week. The theme is Climate Change, thank you East-West Centre for such a great opportunity to learn and collaborate with experts.#uspnextgenradio #USP pic.twitter.com/eKM0Hc7DNw— Sera Tikotikovatu-Sefeti (@SefetiSera) January 11, 2022So, so thrilled to see this come to fruition! Great to see how a US-focused #mediadev activity can be tweaked for an international audience, in this case students in #Fiji and #PNG. #Pacific #USPNextGenRadio https://t.co/AdeV528RrU— Michelle Betz (@michellebetz) January 10, 2022 View this post on InstagramA post shared by Diane Lee (@dianeswlee)
