The Governments of New Zealand and Tonga and the Tindal Foundation have funded a project that will see 63 tanks installed in communities.
New Zealand High Commissioner Tiffany Babington visited the island with MEIDECC CEO Paula Ma’u, to launch the project.
“The project will help reduce the risk of water scarcity in vulnerable communities. It also strengthens the partnership between New Zealand and Tonga on climate change resilience and adaptation,” she said.
