  - The Polynesian Voyaging Society and the East-West Center: An Early and Enduring Relationship
    The Polynesian Voyaging Society and the East-West Center: An Early and Enduring Relationship
    This June, the Polynesian voyaging canoe Hōkūle‘a completes its three-year Mālama Honua Worldwide voyage to promote global sustainability. With its return, 32 years after it set sail from Hawai‘i on its first voyage, thoughts turn to the founders of the Polynesian Voyaging Society and others who helped ignite the revival of traditional, non-instrument voyaging in the Pacific. After the founding of the Polynesian Voyaging Society in Hawai‘i in the early 1970s, the East-West Center provided it support as part of the Center’s mandate from the US Congress to facilitate “cultural and technical interchange between East and West.” The Center, through its deep networks in the then-UN Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, was able to identify the traditional navigator necessary for the project, and host him in Honolulu as a “special fellow.”
