Week Three 'Climate & Adaptation' PILP Week Three ‘Climate & Adaptation’ Synopsis In the Hawaiian language, mālama honua means “to care for our island earth”. After ‘Wayfinding’ in week one and ‘Security and Futures’ in week two, we continue the PILP G5 voyage by focusing on ‘Climate and Adaptation’, perhaps the most pressing global issue of our time. What steps are leaders from all walks of life taking to mobilize people to make progress on these ‘adaptive challenges’. Complex issues of such magnitude often have global roots but local impact. How are Pacific leaders responding? How is regional identity being reframed around urgent environmental issues, both on land and in the ocean? PILP G3 restoring native sand dunes at Bellows Air Force Base - 2015 Tackling our toughest challenges in a fractured world is the real work of adaptive leadership. Despite their urgency, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the environmental challenges we face, especially in the Pacific, where the causes of problems often lie outside the region. But there are also extraordinary opportunities and solutions. What success stories can we identify, learn from, and replicate throughout the blue continent of Oceania - the sea that connects us all? Together, we must paddle the same canoe as we mālama honua. Week Three Detail Monday morning begins with Waka 3 introducing the week. We also warmly welcome our first Taiwanese Visiting Diplomat, Mr. Su, Yueh-Hsi, who is currently stationed in Tuvalu. Then, we turn our attention to the second of our 3 (framing) Questions - ‘What types of action / leadership are required?’ - and the powerful model of Adaptive Leadership. Our focus in this session with Dr. Nick Barker, will be the concept of authority (what does it mean to lead with and without formal authority?), the underestimated skill of diagnosing complex issues, and the difference between a technical problem and an adaptive challenge. The adaptive leadership challenges of the world call all of us to contribute to the future wellbeing of our planet. In the afternoon, Waka 3 and Lance Boyd will facilitate a climate debate in collaboration with EWC subject matter experts, Pacific RISA. The debate will be followed by a reflective writing session. For information on Pacific RISA, start here: http://www.eastwestcenter.org/research/research-projects/pacific-risa-regional- integrated-sciences-and-assessments-program On Tuesday morning, we continue imagining alternative and preferred futures in Oceania during Pacific Foresight with Dr. Scott MacLeod. Then, we welcome back to PILP our friend and mentor, Dr. Tusi, for a session on Pacific Leadership focused on breadfruit entrepreneurship. In 2016, Dr. Tusi launched and directed the inaugural Global Breadfruit Conference in Hawaii (at the Polynesian Cultural Center): http://globalbreadfruitsummit.com. Breadfruit is “one of the most important crops of the 21st century”, containing a host of health and environmental benefits. In the afternoon, Philippe Lemonnier will launch the first of a series of reflective sessions dedicated to developing Personal Action Plans (PAPs), which will help you to envision and prepare personally and professionally for the future, in both life and leadership. PAPs are a core assignment of PILP and will continue into the Field Study in Taiwan, requiring work outside class. Meeting time is reserved for PIP ‘Tok’ presenters and the Waka 3 afterwards. On Wednesday we travel to Kapolei on the west side of Oahu for a case study led by Lance on Climate Mitigation through the Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative (HCEI). Further details and instructions appear below. Depending on rush-hour traffic, we anticipate returning to the EWC around 5:30pm. Thursday morning kicks off early with your second Mandarin class (good work last week, G5!), followed by a short talk on Tuvalu with Mr. Su, our Taiwanese Visiting Diplomat. Then East-West Center and Leadership Program alumnus, Dr. Joshua Cooper, will discuss his work with the UN on climate adaptation. In the afternoon, we delve deeper into the framework of Adaptive Leadership, applying concepts to your workplace and leadership experience. Finally, Gretchen Alther rounds off the day with an (optional) second session of Generative Writing. Please sign up for this in advance (with Philippe) if you would like to attend (maximum 15). If you are a PILP ‘Tok’ presenter or in the Waka 4 host group next week, please meet with Philippe and Lance respectively instead. On Friday morning, as we close Climate and Adaptation week, the theme of PILP ‘Toks’ is “Inspired by Nature’ (see below for detailed information). As always, the afternoon is reserved for wellness. On Sunday afternoon (September 3), Waka 4 and Lance will host G5 at the ‘Mai Poina’ celebration of the 179th birthday of Queen Lili’uokalani. The celebration will include free admission to the 1st floor of Iolani Palace, a concert by the Royal Hawaiian Band on the Palace lawn, and a ‘living history’ theater reenactment of the pivotal days of the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom by a Hawaiian sovereignty group. This event promises to stimulate your thinking around our themes, ‘Resilience and Opportunity’ in Hawaii, while illustrating another wayfinding strategy adopted locally. If you have religious commitments on Sunday afternoon, please put these first and tell Philippe in advance. (It is important we know exact numbers for all site-visits as there are logistical implications.) Please see below (under ‘Mai Poina’) for further details. Monday, September 4 is a national holiday (Labor Day) in the United States and a day off for PILP. The EWC, including Burns Hall, will be closed. Optional recreational and community activities will be proposed, as for every PILP weekend or holiday. 2 PILP G5 Week Two Objectives In Week Three, you will (among other things): • Engage the framework of adaptive leadership • Appreciate the power and pitfalls of authority • Debate climate mitigation • Engage climate action and UN experts on the future of the Pacific region • Imagine alternative and preferred futures in the Pacific • Appreciate the holistic benefits and commercial potential of breadfruit in Oceania as a business model • Start the Personal Action Plan (PAP) process • Discuss the power of positive change with adaptive leaders in clean energy • Deepen your experience of the power and connection of generative writing • Take your Mandarin skills to the next level! • Experience a pivotal moment in Hawaiian history that continues to shape the future Key Ideas and Words Adaptation Indigenous rights Breadfruit Authority Present Wellness Adaptive Leadership Plan Talk Story Climate mitigation Overthrow Regionalism Inspired by nature Key Questions 1.

  • New Caledonia's Independence Referendum
    New Caledonia’s independence referendum: Local and regional Denise Fisher May 2019 implications NEW CALEDONIA’S INDEPENDENCE REFERENDUM: LOCAL AND REGIONAL IMPLICATIONS The Lowy Institute is an independent policy think tank. Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia — economic, political and strategic — and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high-quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Analyses are short papers analysing recent international trends and events and their policy implications. The views expressed in this paper are entirely the author’s own and not those of the Lowy Institute. NEW CALEDONIA’S INDEPENDENCE REFERENDUM: LOCAL AND REGIONAL IMPLICATIONS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY After a long history of difference, including civil war, over independence, New Caledonia’s 4 November 2018 referendum began a self-determination process, but ended 30 years of stability under peace accords. Persistent ethnic division over independence revealed by this first vote may well be deepened by May 2019 local elections. Two further referendums are possible, with discussion about future governance, by 2022, amid ongoing social unease. Bitter areas of difference, which had been set aside for decades, will remain front and centre while the referendum process continues. Key strategic interests are at stake for France, whose Pacific territories add ballast to its global leadership status.

Lōkahi’s founding fathers included Michael Cushnie, Bill Tsuji, Dickie Chow, Randy Fernandez, Marshall Giddens, Jerry Kahler, Willie Luahiwa and John Wong. The word lōkahi means unity, and described the feeling the club’s founders had as members of both a successful crew and also a new canoe club. Randy Fernandez was Lōkahi’s first head coach and is credited with suggesting the name for our club. Randy also came up with the idea of using the Hawaiian flag as part of our logo. Mike Cushnie researched and developed the “Lōkahi stroke” and served as Head Coach for around 12 years, often simultaneously serving as President. Under Mike’s guidance Lōkahi quickly became one of the top clubs both in Hui Wa`a and in the state. Bill Tsuji has coached many different crews, most recently our Women’s Novice B crews. Bill was the coach of Lōkahi’s first State Champions, the Women’s Freshmen in 1982, and he has continued to develop winners over the years.
