| Overview
|
| The University of Hawaii at Manoa intends to use its Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian Institutions Assisting Communities (AN/NHIAC) grant to build the Kanewai Cultural Resource Center, a cultural resource center that will have a significant impact on the community by providing a permanent public facility for the active development of cultural learning, creating a sanctuary for the practice of traditional culture and taro cultivation, and serving as a resource for the statewide implementation of cultural, experiential learning curriculum. The proposed Kanewai Cultural Resource Center will give Native Hawaiians and other low- to moderate-income persons a sanctuary that provides the freedom to experience and practice their heritage in a traditional setting while also having the modern amenities to accommodate all aspects of their learning. Functionally, the resource center will be one of only a few, intact, resource centers in Urban Honolulu available to service the broader native Hawaiian community and all schools.
