Tribewanted has again been featured in The Fiji Times, this time praising the tribe’s commitment to using natural resources for construction on Vorovoro:

Natural way of life for tribe members

Speaking about our level of sustainability, Ben says, “it’s for the guests who come in from all parts of the world to learn how to make use of the natural resources that surround us and avoid man-made material which at times harms the environment. So whatever we make on this island whether it be constructing a building or decorating our camps, it has to do with the natural products such as bamboo, leaves, white sand, pebbles and other products that people will just throw away.”
