Te Hui Oranga o te Moana nui a Kiwa 2024
Event description
A meeting for the wellbeing of our ocean.
An intergenerational movement for Pacific solidarity from Aotearoa.
Te Hui Oranga o te Moana nui a Kiwa 2024 will bring Pacific activists together with movement leaders and organisers in Aotearoa to build regional awareness and address threats to our ocean.
For generations, communities and campaigners in Aotearoa have acted in solidarity with Pacific whanaunga. Forty years have passed since the first Te Hui Oranga o te Moana nui a Kiwa. These were local versions of the Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific conferences, where Māori, Pasifika, and Pacific-minded allies contributed to a grassroots Pacific regionalism and resisted nuclear colonialism. In the context of new, entwined ecological and political crises, we are revitalising this initiative for today.
Te Hui Oranga will build awareness on regional issues, including: Indigenous rights and independence struggles, anti-nuclearism and demilitarisation, as well as environmental threats like climate breakdown and deep sea mining.
Aotearoa must again find a voice on issues that concern us, as peoples of the ocean, in the knowledge that our regional environment is our heritage, the foundation of our unique cultures, and our only basis for a liberated future.
