Academic researchers are investigating the practicality of Kiribati purchasing land in Fiji as a climate change mitigation and adaptation strategy.
The land in question is a 2,210 hectare property at Natoavatu Estate on Vanua Levu, Fiji's second biggest island.
It was purchased by former president Anote Tong in 2014, in what he described as a bid to enhance the economic and social resilience of Kiribati in the face of climate change.
