Are there relevant studies that have been carried out to support the issue? Are there links to national, regional or international goals/policies? Please limit your response to no more than 750 words. The Pacific ocean stretches across some 165 million kilometres of area and covers close to 50% of all the earth's oceans. For most of the island inhabitants, the ocean is our major source of sustenance It is well documented that our lifeline is becoming increasingly threatened and may eventually mean the demise of some of our island homes. Pacific Islanders are contending with the adverse impacts of climate change, over-fishing and Ocean pollution. These challenges cannot be dealt with alone. The trans-boundary nature of our ocean means that there are no boundaries when facing climate change, over fishing and pollution. In this instance regional cooperation is needed more than ever to address these critical issues.

  • Teretere Moana
    TERETERE MOANA Mapping genealogical narratives of identity through animated projection ERENA DONNELLY 2019 Abstract Teretere Moana is a navigational methodology that I have developed to describe a way of utilising researching skills towards the creation of an animation for a media art installation. This methodology encompasses the what, where, why and how, I developed an artwork, which started from an intuitive vision. This methodology is a heuristic inquiry, as it comes from a place of informed subjectivity and intuition (Ings, 2002). The concept for my research came from an ancient story relating to the Takitumu vaka which arrived in Rarotonga possibly during 1100-1200 AD. My methodology entwines old traditional knowledge through storytelling passed down by our tupunas, and with the stories told, we use them as a guidance platform for today. Adapting the old way of completing a task, we interlace our knowledge/intelligence, our ideas, cultural aspects to set forth a task at hand. An essential reference in this journey has been the writing of Manulani Aluli-Meyer, who suggests that by using Pacific epistemologies we become unrestricted by ‘objectivity’ and we can validate our subjectivity (Aluli-Meyer, 2006). Sometimes we see it as a ‘whole’, (a sense of knowing the outcome or a rough draft) and here we look for the start of the journey, by building the foundation. A foundational concept is a mapping tool, and from this structure, I work backward to achieve the result of my initial vision. Seeing the completion from the beginning, I enter a journey toward the unknown that lies in-between, to tell the story of my ancestor Ka’ukura.
