Leader of the Opposition Inia Seruiratu has reaffirmed his dedication to promoting policies that foster fairness, human dignity, and equal opportunities for all citizens during his message on World Day of Social Justice. He expressed solidarity with both the people of Fiji and the broader global community to emphasize a collective commitment to justice, equality, and inclusion.
Highlighting the theme “Empowering Inclusion: Bridging Gaps for Social Justice,” Seruiratu underlined the critical need to dismantle systemic barriers that prevent equitable access to resources and opportunities. He stressed that social justice is foundational for a thriving and just society, ensuring that all individuals, irrespective of their background, deserve access to quality education, fair employment, healthcare, and protection under the law.
In his address, Seruiratu called for a concerted effort to elevate marginalized voices, aiming to create sustainable pathways for all Fijians to flourish. He articulated the necessity of collaboration across various sectors, including government, civil society, businesses, and local communities, to craft impactful policies that extend meaningful support to vulnerable populations.
This message of hope aligns with Seruiratu’s earlier statements made during the International Day of Human Fraternity, where he urged Fijians to celebrate their shared humanity and work towards a society characterized by understanding, respect, and mutual collaboration. Both messages underscore a vision for Fiji as a nation where justice and human rights are upheld, paving the way for a more inclusive and prosperous future.
The spirit of these commitments reinforces the belief that together, Fijians can foster a society that respects and protects the dignity and rights of all its members, highlighting a shared responsibility that is vital for sustainable social cohesion and progress.
