KIOA
Kioa is an island in Fiji, an outlier to Vanua Levu, one of Fiji's two main islands. Situated opposite Buca Bay, Kioa was purchased by settlers from Vaitupu atoll in Tuvalu, who came between 1947 and 1983. Despite its relatively large size, Vaitupu became so overcrowded during the 1940s that a number of families migrated to to live on Kioa Island. Neli Lifuka was instrumental in collecting the funds to purchase Kioa.
