How is this project important to helping our local and global community?
This project is important to our local community because with the system that the Hawaiians had back in the day, it was a natural and healthy way for the crops and the land. Water flows throughout the loʻi and is used throughout all of the patches. Everything about the loʻi is using natural techniques and the ʻāina, just like our Hawaiian ancestors did without any technology. This also helps our global community since we don't use any technology. Using technology at the loʻi would probably mean using machines, which can cause pollution. With this natural system, it helps our local and global community. How is my learning these particular leadership and technical skills of project management important to my future contribution to the Lāhui? In going to the loʻi, we will be joining other classes from the freshman class. Most of them have most likely never been to that specific place before, but my group members and I have last year. We will be going to help the other students learn just like we did, since we already know the expectations. Also, we will be learning anything we may have forgotten or didn't already know while we are there. This helps for future contribution to the Lāhui because as we all learn together, the Kumus will be teaching us how they manage the loʻi and all about the history and why things are the way they are there. With this, we will al be able to pass down this information to future generations, just like the Kumus will be teaching us for the same reason. This keeps our cultural Hawaiian ways alive. My group and I named our project the "Domino Effect," as it is explained on the home page. Individually, we agreed to be good citizens and take care of the environment as best as we can throughout our daily lives. As a group, we plan to go to the loʻi along with the freshman in Kumu Renaud's Hawaiian Culture class. As I have went last year, I want to go back so that I can continue to learn more about my Hawaiian Culture and how they lived so naturally.
