Join us on February 7th, 2026, for our 5km Walk for World Cancer Day – a day where communities across Fiji and the world come together to raise awareness, honor survivors, support caregivers, and stand united in the fight against cancer. 🎗️

This year’s theme, “United by Unique”, reminds us that every story matters. Each survivor, caregiver, and supporter brings their own journey, strength, and voice. Together, these unique experiences form the heart of people‑centered care - care that listens, respects, and responds to the needs of individuals and communities. ❤

📍 Venues: Albert Park, Suva & Shirley Park, Lautoka
🕘 Time: 6.30am
📌 Registration begins at 6am

Let’s walk side by side, united by our uniqueness, and amplify the message that cancer care must always be about people, not just disease.

Most countries have shown no reduction in the affordability of alcoholic or sugary drinks since 2022.

In fact:
⚠️ Sugary drinks became MORE affordable in 62 countries.
⚠️ Beer is now MORE affordable in 56 countries, while spirits are MORE affordable in 67 countries.

Rising affordability means rising demand and rising harm.

The National Wellness Centre launched its first Wellness Wednesday session for the civil service on 5th November 2025 at the National Gymnasium in Suva, promoting physical activity and mental wellbeing through Goju Ryu Karate. This was the initiative of the Head of Wellness, Dr Devina Nand.
Led by certified instructors, participants engaged in warm ups and warm downs, and basic karate movements to enhance balance, focus, and fitness. The initiative aligns with the National Wellness Strategic Plan 2024–2030 and aims to foster a culture of health, teamwork, and NCD prevention across government workplaces. Wellness Wednesdays will continue regularly, with quarterly evaluations and cross-sector collaboration to build a healthier, more productive Fiji.
The Wellness Wednesday programme will be a continuum activity, coordinated by the National Wellness Centre with quarterly evaluations and ongoing monitoring. The initiative aims to:
1. Integrate regular physical activity into the public sector work culture.

2. Strengthen teamwork, discipline, and resilience among civil servants.

3. Promote awareness of noncommunicable disease (NCD) prevention through active lifestyles.

4. Enhance mental wellness and stress management in the workplace.

Venue support and refreshments were kindly provided by the National Wellness Centre. The National Wellness Centre of the Ministry of Health & Medical Services - Fiji expresses gratitude to all participating ministries and partners and looks forward to scaling up as part of Fiji’s broader Wellness for All movement
Vinaka vakalevu and Dhanyavaad to all who took part — together we move towards a healthier, stronger, and more resilient Fiji.

It was great privilege for the Head of Wellness to represent our island nation 🇫🇯 at the UNGA side events on NCDs this year:
1.UNGA80 Breakfast Side Event "Japan’s Innovation and Multi-Stakeholder Partnerships for Tackling NCDs: Advancing the Pathway to UHC” on Sept 24@NYC
2. Accelerating the Global NCD Response through Urgent Action on Stroke on the margins of the Eightieth United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).
For Fiji to be selected amongst 100s of countries to present case studies, our recommendations as citizens of the blue continent and the Pacific region was humbling and in itself a symbol of resilience and strength 💪 of small island developing states.
