World Ocean Day, June 8th, 2020 has a theme of ‘Innovation for a Sustainable Ocean’. Where many may regard this theme as referring to science and technology manipulating or managing marine resources, Moana Pasifika pr oducer Stan Wolfgramm says ‘Our focuses is on the resource of human values; how augmented reality learning, traditional knowledge and storytelling can reignite innate values of sustainability and conservation in us all, and in this way bring to the forefront of all people’s consciousness a desire to make better daily choices to protect our oceans’.
Moana Pasifika is a collective platform for Pacific people’s voices to be heard in the global climate change conversation, specifically concerning the world’s largest ocean, the Pacific Ocean – Te Moana Nui a Kiva.
Wolfgramm says ‘ Moana Pasifika’s primary initiative is to produce a major international containerized touring exhibition for museums, aquariums, conventions centers etc that tells the unique story of the Pacific Ocean from the Indigenous Pacific people’s perspective’.
