For this beach clean-up, our group volunteered with Mālama Learning Center and they mainly focus on beach clean-ups, native replanting, and educating Native Hawaiians on the importance of mālama ʻāina on the western side of the island. What are some examples of your research topic in your own island, community, state, nation?
