Suva, Fiji, is the most important commercial crossroads in the South Pacific. Located in Suva are the Pacific Islands Forum, the regional headquarters of the Secretariat for the Pacific Community (SPC), the region’s applied geosciences organization (SOPAC), the University of the South Pacific (USP), a regional office of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), a regional office affiliated with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and 16 diplomatic missions.
