Who they are
The Fiu are an indigenous Melanesian people who inhabit the island of Malaita in the Solomon Islands, sharing close cultural and linguistic ties with the Kwara’ae. They live in coastal and inland villages, maintaining communal traditions rooted in subsistence farming and fishing. With a Christian heritage deeply woven into daily life, they value extended family, local leadership, and the preservation of their cultural expressions.
