Webinar focus

This webinar with presenter Pale Sauni takes a deep dive into Pacific Financial Wellbeing and explores some of the challenges that we navigate in order to set our sails toward financial independence.

Our cultural obligations include church, extended family, weddings, funerals, birthdays, missionary support and remittance commitments. Because they all require prioritising in terms of financial managing, we will need to unpack these and enhance our collective understanding as to why prioritising can help or hinder our success in tertiary education.
