CONSERVATION CONFERENCE
The Hawaiʻi Conservation Conference allows a diverse group of scientists, policymakers, conservation practitioners, educators, students and community members from Hawaiʻi and the Pacific to converge and discuss conservation. It’s a time to connect, share and inspire, all with the common goal of caring for our natural resources.
CONSERVATION CAREER COMPASS
Inspired by the Mālama Honua Worldwide Voyage, the Conservation Career Compass serves as Hawaiʻi’s new career building resource to guide Hawaiʻi’s next generation of stewards on their voyage to a career in conservation or mālama ʻāina through various pathways such as academic programs, scholarships, fellowships, internships, and volunteering. It provides a sneak peek into the lives of conservationists through featured interviews, on the Navigator Spotlights page, of current professionals sharing their story and journey into conservation and giving advice to the next generation. Through blog style articles on the Career Guidance page, we offer tips on topics such as interviewing, applying for a job, resume writing and more.
AHUPUAʻA ACCELERATOR INITIATIVE
The Ahupuaʻa Accelerator Initiative (AAI) was created to facilitate and support ahupuaʻa-wide restoration through community-based and culturally grounded management of ‘āina and kai. Grounded in shared values of the Kamehameha Schools and the Harold K.L. Castle Foundation, and building upon complementary efforts of the Hawaiʻi Conservation Alliance, the AAI centers on increasing community-based, culturally-grounded stewardship and improving support to community-based stewardship organizations.
COMMUNITY WATERSHED SNAPSHOT
The Hawaiʻi Conservation Alliance Watershed Snapshot is a status report on the health of our watersheds for decision makers and communities. The analysis uses geospatial agency data and select information gathered by participating communities to inform development of a suite of communication tools to advance coastal management efforts.
