Solomon Islands' Advisor
Richard Nation
Richard brings a global perspective, having lived and worked in Solomon Islands, Samoa, Australia, Netherlands, Anguilla, Fiji, Indonesia, and Timor Leste.
His career began in engineering at Kramer Ausenco, focusing on infrastructure projects in Papua New Guinea and the wider Pacific. He then transitioned to development economics, delivering impactful programs across Asia Pacific with Palladium, DT Global and EY. These included initiatives like the Pacific Horticultural and Agricultural Market Access Plus program (Fiji, PNG, Solomon Islands, Samoa, Tonga, Vanuatu), the Kemitraan Indonesia-Australia untuk Infrastruktur program (Indonesia), The Partnerships for Infrastructure (Southeast Asia) and the Regional Trade For Development program (ASEAN, Australia, New Zealand).
“Having grown up in developing countries, I've always been intrinsically motivated with supporting sustainable development in developing countries. That is what led me down the engineering and economic development path and I now want to leverage my infrastructure, economic and financial experience to help be part of impactful solutions to the climate challenges that the region is facing.”Follow Richard on LinkedIn
