Matrilineal Kinship at Sea in Bougainville, PNG
HUMANIORA VOLUME 30 Number 3 October 2018 Page 223–236 Matrilineal Kinship at Sea in Bougainville, PNG Katharina Schneider Independent Researcher E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper explores matrilineal kinship in the Buka area, in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, from the perspective of saltwater people on Pororan Island. In Bougainville and elsewhere in Melanesia, anthropological research has highlighted the importance of joint work in the gardens, of sharing and exchanging garden food, and of negotiations of access to land for kinship and relatedness in the region. Where does this leave saltwater people, who often have only small areas of land of their own, take little interest in gardening and depend on traded sweet potatoes or imported rice for meeting their subsistence needs? In the first part of this paper, I discuss the “landed” bias in anthropological research on kinship, including matrilineal kinship. I then suggest complementary descriptive and analytic terms that may be useful for researchers who want to understand kin relations among saltwater people, based on my experiences among Pororan Islanders in Bougainville. Finally, I indicate the theoretical contribution that these terms can make to research on kinship in landed settings, as well. Keywords: matrilineal kinship; saltwater people; maritime anthropology; Bougainville; Papua New Guinea INTRODUCTION The topic of this paper is matrilineal kinship among 05. The Buka area includes Buka Island, locally Pororan Islanders in Bougainville, PNG, and its called -

Developing healthier and more inclusive communities through sport Vanuatu The impact of development through sport Results of research conducted on the Australian Sports Outreach Program in Vanuatu The Australian Sports Outreach Program in Vanuatu is working with local communities to help address important development challenges, including health related behaviours, young people’s engagement, and quality of life for women and people with disability. Through a partnership with Vanuatu’s Department of Youth Development, Sports and Training, three discreet projects in five provinces are being delivered through the Nabanga Sport for Development program. With Australia’s support, Nabanga is developing healthier, more inclusive and more cohesive communities through sport. Sport is well placed to help combat non-communicable diseases by getting people more active more often, and by providing opportunities to deliver messages on other risk factors including diet, tobacco and alcohol. When used strategically, sport can also address barriers to inclusion, and establish and build relationships within and between communities.
