Forty-five villages in Fiji will be relocated as they have been impacted by climate change.

The Permanent Secretary for i-Taukei Affairs, Pita Tagicakirewa, says the whole of Fiji is prone to climate change, even in the highlands.

He says the most affected are coastal and maritime villages and Tagicakirewa says a team is working on relocating a village in Dreketi and Cogea Village in Vanua Levu.

He says the relocation process will take time as they need to access funds for this activity.
