About UN LESA
UN LESA Fiji is a group of spouses of UN International staff members formed under the Global Expatriate Spouse Association in line with the UNDG Joint Guidance Note on the Employment of Expatriate Spouses.
UN LESA Fiji is dedicated to assisting UN international staff and their family settle in Fiji, connect them to the Suva community and share employment opportunities.
On occasion we have evening social events or coffee mornings to meet new UN family members, share information and connect our members.
The United Nations Global Mobility Programme supports the mobility of staff members and spouses through information and access to networks.
