This type of management structure enables families to maintain their livelihoods and, at the same time, builds sustainable resource systems that will last for generations.<\/p>\n<p>Implementing stronger regulations against overfishing, teaching community members about sustainable alternatives and protecting coral reefs in and around the local fishing grounds will ensure that the people of Oneata safeguard their own future as well as the future of nearby ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>CORAL has a long history of working with communities in Fiji to protect coral reefs and the people who rely on them. We know that people and reefs depend on each other, and we\u2019re working in Fiji and a number of other places across the globe to unite communities to save coral reefs.<\/p>\n<p>But we can\u2019t do it alone; we need your help. Right now, we have the local support necessary to develop durable solutions that can exist well into the future. But we do not yet have the financial resources to turn these solutions into reality for the Oneata community. Today, we ask you to consider making a donation. Please visit www.coral.org\/safeguardingfijisreefs to donate and learn more about how you can support communities like Oneata and save coral reefs.<\/p>\n<p>Soko Ledua:<br \/>\n\u201cMainly we just want the youth to be educated, so they can look for long-term business.
