M膩lama Pu鈥榰loa: Fostering Innovative Collaboration to Restore Pearl Harbor to Abundance by Ms. Sandy Ward
Hui o Ho鈥榦honua 501(c)3 Community Non-Profit
It is clear that the watersheds of the 鈥楨wa district (moku) must be the focus of intense restoration and research efforts. Eight 鈥楨wa moku watersheds feed into Pearl Harbor (Pu鈥榰loa) and include extensive shoreline wetlands, our island's primary drinking water aquifer, and thriving nearshore fisheries, all of which were historically abundant. While these waters continue to be impacted by pollution, neglect, and insufficient agency collaboration, there are reasons to be optimistic. This presentation will describe how a relatively new community non-profit is developing innovative approaches to restoration in the region. From a community perspective that includes concerns about food and water security, this presentation includes a call to the scientific community to focus their efforts on the challenges associated with the waters of Pu鈥榰loa. Current and potential research collaborations play a vital role in positive, impactful, and community-driven change.
