Outreach Education

Winged Ambassador Education Program

The Winged Ambassador Education Partnership between Kure Atoll Conservancy, State of Hawaii DLNR-DOFAW, Oikonos Ecosystem Knowledge, and Hawai‘i Pacific University have teamed up to offer free boluses as a valuable teaching resource.

Huliʻia: Seasonal Calendars

Nā Make o Papa collaborates with Kure Atoll Conservancy and DLNR-DOFAW field camps through their Huliʻia Project. Huli‘ia is an observational process documenting seasonal changes and shifts over time, identifies cycles within certain species or occurrences and assists in identifying correlations between species and/or occurrences as indicators of the opposite. It allows natural cycles to support and guide our management practices, which with the impacts of climate change allows the flexibility needed to ensure the best times to rest areas or species and/or to harvest areas or species.

The Kiamanu Project

The Kiamanu Project focuses on increasing community support for seabird conservation efforts through events and activities that bridge culture and science. Under the guidance of the Northwestern Hawaiian Island Native Hawaiian Cultural Work Group (CWG) — an advisory group to Papahānaumokuākea’s Monument Management Board–and their Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) Permit, the Kiamanu Project develops gathering and transport methods of salvage-appropriate seabirds within PMNM, manages the procurement, repositry, distribution, and provides educational opportunities and activities for the community around these resources.
