Huliauapaʻa works to build a network that cultivates and guides meaningful pilina amongst Collective members towards our shared vision of empowered communities restoring, reinvigorating, and stewarding Hawaiʻi’s wahi kūpuna.
An Interdisciplinary Community of Practice
Established in 2017, the Kaliʻuokapaʻakai Collective is a community of practice of advocates in Wahi Kūpuna Stewardship. It was created from the need to come together and organize our shared ideas, resources, and strategies to build capacity and take collective action in safeguarding Hawaiʻi’s wahi kūpuna, or ancestral and cultural places. For years many of us have been working in separate silos to enact change, but werenʻt achieving the large-scale impacts so the Collective was formed to strengthen Wahi Kūpuna Stewardship through collaboration and collective efforts.
