Famous in Honiara

Sistas Savve is getting even more publicity, with another article being run in today's Solomon Star. It discusses how the women learnt how to make the earrings at a Festival of Pacific Arts workshop, and are now selling them for income!

Sistas Savve is a two year project aiming to improve the health, economic and social status of young women in Honiara. It is a partnership between Solomon Islands Planned Parenthood Association (SIPPA), Solomon Islands Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA-SI) and Family Planning International New Zealand, and is funded by the New Zealand Aid Programme.

By providing a range of informal education opportunities, the young women will develop skills and knowledge that will enable them to earn a livelihood and develop leadership, reproductive health, nutrition, and parenting skills. Over two years, Sistas Savve will provide opportunities to 120 young women, their families and communities.
