World Bank Income Classification:Low IncomeThe World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.Least Developed Country:YesSince 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.Gender Inequality Index:0.575GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa.Gender Development Index:0.723GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

The Vunisea Market on Kadavu Island has become the 13th market in Fiji to successfully establish and register its market vendor association (MVA). All 13 MVAs reported having women make up at least 50 per cent of their MVA executive membership. In addition, 8 out of 13 MVAs (62%) have female Presidents leading the Associations. Consistent capacity building over several years has led to over 3000 MVA members across the 12 municipal councils frequently engaging in the decision-making processes on matters about the coordination and management of the marketplaces. In 2021 vendors participated in and sometimes led key decision-making processes toward minimizing COVID-19 spread in the marketplaces and issues related to food security. Nine MVAs have initiated interventions to improve the socio-economic status of women and men in the markets. This included facilitating access and supporting members on their application for Fiji Government loans to protect small business entrepreneurs during the COVID-19 pandemic. In recognising the key role MVAs play in the informal economic sector towards nation building, the Fiji Government Ministry of Economy held a national budget consultation with MVA executive committee representatives of the 13 MVAs.
