Tokoriki Island Resort is proud to be a founding
member of the Mamanuca Environment Society (MES). As a founding member of the
MES, Tokoriki Island Resort is committed to improving and protecting the local
environment through awareness and education. Our General Manager, Erin McCann
is the Co-Chairman of the society. The Mamanuca Environment Society was founded
in March 2003 and currently employs a full time Marine Biologist/Project
Manager. The Project Manager collects data, monitors the reef and marine
systems in our area, liaises with the local stakeholders and spends a great
deal of her time educating the school children and adults in the local
communities of the Mamanucas in best practice guidelines and ways to improve
the sustainability of the surrounding environment.
It is a fact that human impact is a contributing factor to the degradation of
the environment. Through awareness, education and a huge investment in our
infrastructure, Tokoriki hopes that we can improve, if not reverse any
detrimental effects that the resort and its guests have on the beautiful
surroundings we have here in the Mamanuca Islands of Fiji.
