Good morning,
Applications are now open for an exciting new study abroad program in Hawaii. A partnership between the
Information School and the
Office of Minority Affairs and Diversity, the program will expose students to different ways of knowing and take them through a hands-on journey from oceanic navigation to taro cultivation and fishing. The focus will be on Hawaii and Oceania and will help
students understand the value of indigenous knowledge systems as valid, critical, and credible sources of scientific information. Please share this unique opportunity with the students in your program.
More information and a link to apply can be found here:
