Synopsis (short abstract) As part of the SIDS Solutions Forum, 30-31 August 2021, FAO collected innovations and creative digital technologies that respond to local problems and challenges. More than half of Fijians suffer from poor nutritional status and diet-related health problems. This flyer presents a mobile app to help Fijians take ownership of their own health status. The app works by tracking dietary intake on a daily basis through a platform called “my meals” that creates specific recipes culturally familiar to the user.

    As part of the SIDS Solutions Forum, 30-31 August 2021, FAO collected innovations and creative digital technologies that respond to local problems and challenges. Fiji has very low digital literacy, making online delivery a challenge for people who are not aware of, and not using, mobile technologies. However, online delivery had become strategic during the COVID-19 global pandemic. This flyer presents a system of manual ordering which allows customers to order directly from any restaurant that they chose. The restaurants slowly built and managed their online profiles. The platform has since been extended to deliver medicines, groceries and other necessities to customers.
