E Ola me ka Hoʻoilina o ko kākou Aliʻi
We've spent a lot of time this year understanding the E Ola Learner Outcomes and one of those was Alakaʻi Lawelawe. Alakaʻi Lawelawe or servant leadership is just one example of leadership. We can apply servant leadership traits into groups of people to influence them to take action, good or bad depending on the leader. If you have a group member that fits the mold of a leader and is able to help motivate the rest of your group towards doing good then you will be able to accomplish your goals. Examples of subjectively good and “great” leaders could be Alexander the great and Asoka. These leaders cared for their people in different ways. Alexander would go and be a genius general leading his armies into many victories. Asoka was known for bringing his people together through peace. He was once a very aggressive and agitated man but learned to change for his people. According to one of many britannica articles about him it was told that he advocated for buddhism in a time that it was looked down upon by the rest of the world but he did this with a similar mindset to gandhi. They both wanted a nonviolent lifestyle for themselves and their people. Leaders in history will live on with their legacy and depending on who they were their legacy can vary. Leaderscan be renown for bravery or stupidity but its the leader no matter how smart or dumb that takes control and has an affect on everybody in a group of people.
If you look at Pauahi, she believed in the Hawaiian ways and our traditions but she also believed in Jesus Christ and the Christian mindset. She actively shaped the future of Hawaii by applying both mindsets into what we know as kūlia. In Fact she did not only influence those around but she still has an influence over us today. We are built on a foundation that started with her. She is our leader and we are forced to grow around her. If she was a poor leader who knows where the students of Kamehameha will be. But because of her strength and purity we are a successful educational institution and we are capable of achieving the best of our abilities through her. |

Geography plays a huge part in impacting the resources and ʻāina group controls. Firstly, the geography of a place affects the resources a civilization has. For example, a coastal area has access to sea products while some areas are better for growing crops. The civilization evolves based on what they need and may have to barter for resources that are scarce. These differences affect the way they interact with other villages. They may trade and ally with some places and disassociate themselves with others. To sum everything up we can see how important geography is for any civilization.

The sustainability rights play a role in leveraging resources. BlueGlacier says that “Sustainability improves the quality of our lives, protects our ecosystem and preserves natural resources for future generations.” By following the sustainability rights, you can prove how you deserve the resources instead of begging. You can prove that you earned the right to have ownership upon these resources and you will use it as a way to grow and evolve your civilization. According to PermaCulture, “interactions with the environment are only “sustainable” if they don’t destroy the environment and the resources provided by it.”
This shows that by being sustainable means that in doing so, you will have a healthy environment and maintain the amount of resources you have to grow your civilization. By doing so, you can have more resources to produce to trade or to sell to other civilizations to evolve yours. You can evolve your civilization and you can improve the health of your people and others. Sustainability rights offer you and your people to be bigger than you could have ever imagined. Because sustainability improves, protects, and preserves our lives, ecosystem, and resources, we can use it as leverage for resources. |
