Abstract

Under the local government structure in Fiji, the country is divided into 13 municipalities, each with a council responsible for local service delivery. Yet local government elections have not been held since 2005. The coalition government elected in 2022 intends to reinstate local government elections, with the first due to be held in 2024. This In Brief will explore the potential avenues for reform to create more inclusive local government structures in Fiji.
