Honourable Minister Annual Report 2017 – 2018 I am pleased to present to you the Annual Report for the period August 2017 to July 2018 for the Ministry of Youth and Sports.

This report covers the financial year period.

The document provides an overview of the Ministry’s performance and outlines the Ministry’s achievement against its Annual Corporate Plan.
This Annual Report is also the last report under the former management of the Ministry with the change in leadership effected after the 2018 General Election and the appointment of a new Permanent Secretary in December of the same year.

Suffice to note Sir that Ministry has carried on from its performance from recent years as reflected in this report.
With the change in leadership the Ministry has also refocused its view on young people and to listen to their needs and adopt it as part of the Ministry’s strategic plans for the coming fiscal year.

The report also serves to challenge us all in our performance for the coming years.

Yours faithfully, ……………………….

J. MARITINO NEMANI Permanent Secretary MINISTRY OF YOUTH AND SPORTS 3 2.0.
Permanent Secretary’s Statement and With the Civil Service Reforms picking up pace, a significant amount of time was dedicated to ensuring the open merit selection recruitment was implemented across the Ministry in a consistent way.

This required training of a significant number of staff but it bore fruit in that a number of new appointees from outside the Ministry and the civil service were appointed adding a new dimension to the work of the Ministry.
Similarly in the period under review, preparations were made for the job evaluation process and a fairly smooth transition was made in the Ministry.

As part of improving the planning process of Ministries through the civil service reforms, the Ministry reviewed its strategic plan.

From the end of the financial year, the focus is on “building values that lead to success” through being a “Ministry for all youth” and integrating sport and youth development into the mainstream work of the Ministry.
This has also allowed a more inclusive approach with some priority being given to youth at risk in line with Government’s stated objective of leaving no-one behind.

There are areas of improvement including more services being provided in urban areas, to women and persons with disabilities as well as changing from outputs to outcomes and impacts.

In other areas, the Ministry began to focus on delivering accredited training with a number of accredited service providers.
This has helped ensure greater cooperation in the sector and to improve the standard of training.

In line with this, the Ministry also began the process of “practicing what we preach” and worked with the Fiji Higher Education Commission to get our youth training centers, our trainers and our training programmes accredited.
Through the initiative of our Honorable Minister, the Ministry also accepted three young people, two men and one woman, from Tuvalu to train in carpentry and organic farming at the Youth Training Centre in Sigatoka.

All three completed their training and opened the door for more young people to come to Fiji to train at our Youth Training Centers as part of our commitment to “south-south cooperation”.
As part of our ongoing commitment to youth development, the Ministry took the initiative to put those staff interacting with youth on a course to become trainers.

This is so that their time in the field becomes more rewarding as they take on a training role in addition to consulting and monitoring.

This will further enable the Ministry to meet the commitment made at the Commonwealth Youth Ministers’ Meeting to mainstream youth development work within this Ministry and throughout Ministries.
With over 60% of Fiji’s population being in the youth category, this is appropriate and requires coordination by the Ministry to ensure complementary and focused quality service delivery.

During the year, the Ministry assisted those youth in villages affected by TC Winston, in cooperation with the Ministry of Women, Children and Poverty Alleviation to learn how to rebuild their homes.

This was done through offering accredited training with the Technical College of Fiji.
To support this initiative further, the Ministry provided basic carpentry equipment to each village.

The fact that several women underwent this training and that some of the trainees were able to secure jobs afterwards were additional and significant benefits.

The Ministry also began cooperation with the Maritime Safety Authority of Fiji in offering boat master’s training to youth based in maritime areas.
While not accredited, this training is the only such training available and, for the first time, women were encouraged and took up the challenge of undergoing this training.

A new avenue of cooperation was also pursued in working with the Fiji Corrections Service to put young people through the Seeds of Success programme run by the Ministry.

This is to instill a level of discipline based on understanding of responsibilities as well as building self-confidence.
This programme started in Suva and will expand to the Western and Northern Divisions.

On a related front, the Ministry and Fiji Police Force worked together on particularly sports related programmes to develop discipline, teamwork, respect for rules, as well as improved fitness through physical activity.

Both of these programmes will continue and expand.

On the sports front, the Ministry has supported the development of sport through the Fiji National Sports Commission and the Fiji Sports Council.
The Ministry also re-established the Boxing Commission of Fiji to begin the revival of professional boxing in the country.

Netball Fiji happily won the bid to host the U20 World Netball Cup and Weightlifting Fiji won the bid to host the 2019 World Junior Weightlifting Championships – both feathers in Fiji’s cap as part of the developing sports tourism strategy.

Throughout the year, there were processes put in place to develop memoranda of understanding (MOU) with other countries.
Our sincere gratitude to our partners, foreign embassies and multi- lateral agencies, to our stakeholders in sport and to the non-formal education sector for your ongoing contributions.

To our clients in the youth and sports sector we thank you for your support.
Our appreciation to the Honorable Minister and Assistant Minister for their ongoing guidance and commitment to the cause of both youth and sports development as well as for pushing the Ministry to meet our ongoing commitments to the highest standards possible.
