A small team from #UniversityOfWaikato is leading a 2 yr project about how #ClimateChange affects people departing their homelands in #Tonga & #Samoa.

#Researchers include Professor Sandy Morrison & Project Lead Lora Vaioleti, who joined Pacific Mornings to elaborate on their studies.

Violeti says a survey with 600 respondees revealed there’s particular interest from #TonganWomen to leave the Kingdom, a gender difference not reflected in the #Samoan respondents.
