Preparedness, Prevention phase : Food and Water Preservation
As food scarce after a cyclone, the bearing of more fruits and food before a cyclone is a way for the vanua to communicate with the iTaukei people to prepare in advance in terms of food security. \n\n‘Best practices’ as related to Traditional Knowledge refer to examples and cases that illustrate the good use of Traditional Knowledge in developing sustainable survival strategies for the indigenous communities. These survival mechanisms have been used and transmitted from generation to generation by the respective communities.
