Ho'ākea: Mauka to Makai Navigating our Future honors the rich history and traditions of Hawaiian voyaging. Sponsored by the DOE, various waʻa (canoe) and aloha ʻāina (land and ocean based) organizations in our communities will provide hands-on learning experiences that perpetuate foundational values and perspectives of the navigation. We hope this event inspires our students, schools, and larger community to embrace the "Navigator Mindset and become the leaders, stewards, and critical thinkers" that can navigate us into a better future.
