A young Solomon Islands woman, Nanny Walasi, is breaking new ground in construction on the Buala Market Project, gaining hands-on skills and inspiring other women to follow in her footsteps.
Women working across government, industry and training institutions have called on their sisters to advance the sustainability and economic potential of Solomon Islands infrastructure by working in the sector.
Another 22 women from Honiara and rural areas have been selected to undertake training in construction and in solar photovoltaic systems under Australia’s Green Construction Training Program.
