Education

Learning about Parliament can be interesting and fun.

The Parliament of the Republic of Fiji develops education programs and resources for students, teachers and the public at large.

‘Our SaY’ (Student and Youth) is our education and youth engagement flagship. It is a comprehensive education project targeted to students and youth. It is designed around four stages of learning development as students’ progress through primary and secondary education and on to tertiary education and the workplace. Our SaY includes resources for teaching of parliament, professional development for teachers, school based education programs such as role plays, practice parliaments and youth networking activities centred around parliament. Our SaY encourages students and youth to be active participants in our democracy.
