24.01.2022 Today is #GivingTuesday, a day to encourage Australians to show their generosity. With the world’s wealth so unevenly distributed, it’s easy to feel powerless to change when you’re not earning huge amounts of money. But being able to donate just 1% of your salary can make a huge difference to the causes you care about. Finance blogger, Emma Edwards gives us her tips here: https://bit.ly/362Mp4r

08.01.2022 As we begin the new year and aim for a fresh start, the world's most vulnerable continue to work through the complex impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 CASES The Pacific has continued to have relatively small numbers of cases and deaths, although the territories of French Polynesia and West Papua continue to be the Pacific Island region’s COVID-19 hotspots.... ECONOMIC IMPACT While the health implications of the Covid-19 pandemic have been limited in most Pacific Island Countries, the economic implications are severe. POVERTY LEVELS A reduction in tourism and a decline in the flow of remittances has reduced household income, leaving a large portion of the Pacific population with weaker food security. Extreme poverty is also likely to increase significantly. FOOD SECURITY Until travel restrictions are loosened, it is likely that Pacific economies will continue to struggle. As a result, food security in the region is expected to remain weaker than before the onset of the pandemic. Learn more: https://www.endcovidforall.com/
