  • The Role of the South Tarawa-Based Women's Interests Program in The
    Waves for Change: the role of the South Tarawa-based women’s interests program in the decolonisation process of the Gilbert Islands SAMANTHA ROSE BA (Hons), Queensland University of Technology (QUT) Submitted in full requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Division of Research and Commercialisation Queensland University of Technology Research Students Centre January 2014 i KEYWORDS History; women; decolonisation; Gilbert and Ellice Islands Colony (GEIC); Kiribati; Tuvalu; women’s clubs; women’s interests; border-dweller; Church-based women’s clubs; women’s fellowships; indigenisation; gender; custom; Pacific women; community workers ii ABSTRACT Histories of the Republic of Kiribati (formerly the Gilbert and Ellice Islands Colony (GEIC)) have failed to fully acknowledge the pivotal role women played individually, as well as collectively through the phenomenon of women’s clubs, in preparing the Colony for independence. In the late 1950s, and in anticipation of the eventual decolonisation of Pacific territories, humanitarian developments within the South Pacific Commission (SPC) called for women's interests to be recognised on the regional Pacific agenda. The British Colonial administration, a founding member of the SPC, took active steps to implement a formalised women's interests program in the GEIC. Acknowledging that women were to have a legitimate role in the new independent nation, albeit restricted to that of the domestic sphere and at the village level, the British Colonial administration, under the leadership of Resident Commissioner VJ Andersen, initiated strategies aimed at building the capacity of organisational structures, personnel, training, networks and communication for community betterment. The strategy focussed on the informal adult education of village women through the creation of a national network of village-based women's clubs.
