Week 3 of our 2025 Wahi Kūpuna Internship Program in Kuʻia, Lahaina 🌱 We are officially halfway through our program! Last week, our interns learned about foundational ʻāina field methods, applying these techniques in different areas throughout Kuʻia. Additionally, our interns, Huliauapaʻa staff, and our partners from Kamehameha Schools participated in a huakaʻi in Kahoma with Lahaina community members. We are so grateful for all of the beautiful moʻolelo ʻāina shared with us thus far and mahalo all the hui and 'ohana for sharing these spaces with us. #huliauapaa #nohopapa #wkip #wkip2025 #wahikupunainternship #innovativelearning #hawaiileadership #hawaiistewardship #leadershipdevelopment #culturalresourcemanagement #crmhawaii #hawaiiopportunities #alohaaina #malamaaina #kuleana #moomeheu #ehookanaka #ikekupuna #hawaiianarchaeology #moolelo #kamehamehaschools #oiwi (fb)
