Tuna Australia Scholarships to Tuvaluan Seafarers
Under the Pacific Labour Scheme (PLS) scheme, Tuna Australia (an association of Australian fisheries) recruits Tuvaluan fishermen for three-year placements in Australia to address labour shortages. The skills learnt during their time working under the Tuna Australia PLS scheme, will help to support the Tuvaluan commercial fishing industry when the workers return home.
