The work was performed pursuant.to U.S. Department of Education grants #008401776/ 008401784. The contents of this booklet do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of that agency or of NWREL. This booklet may be duplicated in whole or in part by classroomteachers in the Pacific Islands only for noncommercial purposes, providing that the author, NWREL, and DOE are credited. PREFACE The peoples of the Pacific region have been involvedin a process of rapid' development and change in recent years. They have taken on the demanding yet exciting tasks of forging their governments,planning for social and economic development, and shaping the future of their children.Many dedicated men and women have played key roles in this developmental process. This booklet is about the lives of some of the women who have made outstanding contributions in the Pacific region. In her work with the jurisdictions in the Pacific, Dr. Ethel Simon-McWilliams found that educational materials about the contributions ofPacific women, particularly within their own jurisdictions, were virtually nonexistent- To fill this void, she conferred with key people in each area toask them to identify some of the women who have been instrumental in the development of their society. This booklet is the result of her efforts. This is the second edition of Glimpses into Pacific Lives: Some Outstanding. Women. The first edition, which appeared in March, 1986, presented the biographies of women selected in 1985.fortheir contributions to their communities. The response to the first booklet has been overwhelming, not only in the Pacific jurisdictions themselves,but 'throughout the U.S. mainland as well. Based on that interest and the apparent need for information about the many roles played by womenin the development of Cas Pacific, this booklet has been revised and expanded to include a greater number of the many women who are working tostrengthen their communities in the Pacific region. The selection proce-ses are detailed below. In American Samoa, in both 1985 and 1986, a team assisted Mere Betham, the former Director of Education for American Samoa, in preparing the biographies of outstanding Samoan women. Momoe Malietoa von Reiche compiled the biography of Aggie Grey. On Guam, under the direction of Dr, Ione Wolf, a special committee conducted a rigorous selection process to name the top two Outstanding Women of Guam for 1985. Committee members included: Romana C. Mendiola, Curriculum Writer and Committee Chairperson; Bill Paulino, Acting Administrator, Chamorro Division; Ann Rivera, Acting Director, Bilingual/ Bicultural Program; Rose Castro, Program Coordinator: Fe Barrett, Program Coordinator; Rita Okada, Program Coordinator; and Ann Garcia, Curriculum Writer. The selction of Outstanding Women of Guam for 1986 was again conducted by committee under Dr. Wolf's direction.The 1986 committee members were Florent V. Northway, Consultant, Depattment ofEducation; Lourdes S. N. Boyd, Principal, Simon Sanchez High School; Rosa C. Quitano, Principal, C, L. Taitano Elementary School; and Lenore C. Cabot, Principal, Wettengel Elementary School. 4 For Hawaii, Dr. Donnis Thompson, former Hawaii State Superintendent of Education and now a professor at the University of Hawaii/Manoa, coordinated the selection process in 1985. Margaret Goding researched the backgrounds of the influential women selected, and Alice Buck and Donnis Thompson wrote the biographical sketches. In 1986, Dr. Thompson again directed the selection process and assisted with editing the biographies. Special appreciation is extended to the following institutions and individuals for their written and oral testimonies which made possible the inclusion of these exceptional women in the second edition: Mayor Carpenter's Office and the Commission on the Status of Women, on the island of Hawaii; Beverly Manner, Alu Like, the museum, and the YWCA, on the island of Kauai; and Janet Dapitan, Jill Engledow and Lillian Murakami, on the island of Maui. The photograph of Inez MacPhee Ashdown was taken by Jill Engledow. The descriptions of the lives and contributions of women from the Republic of Belau, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands were compiled by several individuals.For the first edition, Agnes McPhetres coordinated the efforts of Marie Maddison, Jeban Riklon and others in preparing the selections.For the second edition, Elizabeth Rechebei coordinated the submissions from Romana Anastacio for the Republic of Belau, Julie R. Yoruw for Yap State, SeNellie Singeo for Pohnpei State, Hilda Heine-Jetnil for the Marshall Islands, and Connie Kaufer for the Northern Marianas. The contributions of all of these individuals in making this booklet possible are gratefully acknowledged. Clearly this is but a sample of the many women who are working to build stronger communities in the Pacific. Glimpses into Pacific Lives: Some Outstanding Women will be used by the Centers for National Origin & Sex Equity staff as they provide assistance to the various jurisdictions in the Pacific region. This booklet is an attempt to document and celebrate the spirit and dedication of Pacific women. It is hoped that the glimpses of the lives of the women presented here will serve to inspire future generations 'co cr,ntinue to strive to improve their own lives and to work for the well-being of their societies.

  • The 16 STATES
    The 16 STATES Pristine Paradise. 2 Palau is an archipelago of diverse terrain, flora and fauna. There is the largest island of volcanic origin, called Babeldaob, the outer atoll and limestone islands, the Southern Lagoon and islands of Koror, and the southwest islands, which are located about 250 miles southwest of Palau. These regions are divided into sixteen states, each with their own distinct features and attractions. Transportation to these states is mainly by road, boat, or small aircraft. Koror is a group of islands connected by bridges and causeways, and is joined to Babeldaob Island by the Japan-Palau Friendship Bridge. Once in Babeldaob, driving the circumference of the island on the highway can be done in a half day or full day, depending on the number of stops you would like. The outer islands of Angaur and Peleliu are at the southern region of the archipelago, and are accessable by small aircraft or boat, and there is a regularly scheduled state ferry that stops at both islands. Kayangel, to the north of Babeldaob, can also be visited by boat or helicopter. The Southwest Islands, due to their remote location, are only accessible by large ocean-going vessels, but are a glimpse into Palau’s simplicity and beauty. When visiting these pristine areas, it is necessary to contact the State Offices in order to be introduced to these cultural treasures through a knowledgeable guide. While some fees may apply, your contribution will be used for the preservation of these sites. Please see page 19 for a list of the state offices.
