Meet the Media Team at the 9th Pacific Islands Conference on Nature Conservation: Justine Mannan

Age: 24 years old

Programme of study: Journalism student at the Fiji National University

I am honoured to be a part of this event as it is my first time attending a large conference and being part of a media team. I hope to gain a wide range of knowledge and understanding from the conference itself, as well as working with other student journalists and senior journalists. Nature conservation is important because we need nature to survive and protect certain areas and species which is essential for human survival. Caring for the next generation and ensuring they grow up in a safe, clean and prosperous environment, we need to act now to conserve nature.
