Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka says our nation can be in unity if we live in harmony.

While speaking during the World Indigenous Day Celebrations at the Vodafone Arena today, Rabuka says let us as a nation move forward and overcome challenges and also negotiate the challenges before us for the benefit of our generation.

Rabuka says today is the call to the indigenous to accept the challenges of those who have lived and called this land their home.

He further says that teaching our traditional culture should be passed down to our younger generation.

He also thanked the Ministry of iTaukei Affairs for organizing today's event.

More than 20 schools are part of this celebration to witness how traditional protocols are conducted.

Meanwhile, the Ministry for iTaukei Affairs also launches its traditional knowledge and expression of the culture database.

The theme for this year's indigenous day is Indigenous youths as agents of change for self-determination.
