Djuren’s Eco-Warrior Legacy

Ina Djuren, a devoted guardian of nature’s heart, channels her unwavering dedication into persistent endeavours aimed at comprehending, confronting, and conquering the challenges of climate change.

Originally from the vibrant landscapes of Germany, she now resides in Levuka with her husband and their adventurous two-year-old son, Joeli Ravulolo.

Djuren and Ravulolo were part of the Fiji National University’s (FNU), College of Engineering, Science and Technology (CEST) mangrove tree planting initiative along the Nasese foreshore.

“We came to Suva and discovered that FNU had organised a mangrove planting activity at the Nasese foreshore. Therefore, we decided to extend our stay and engage in planting mangrove trees,” she explained.

“Taking care of mother nature is imperative. We all share the responsibility of safeguarding our environment, especially in the face of climate change challenges in the Pacific region. By doing our part, we protect our coastal environment and pave the way for a better future.”

“I brought my son along so he can learn from a young age about the importance of environmental protection and kindle his interest in it.”
