About

Scope and Stewardship of the Center

Education

Develop an interdisciplinary curriculum from existing or modified courses, new courses, and a series of practical experiences. Student completion will result in a sustainability leadership honor. This curriculum development will be facilitated by the Kumuwaiwai Center for Sustainability in partnership with various academic programs.

Research

Our student body belongs to a rich cultural history of unique sustainability practices from Oceania and Asia.  How is that legacy applied in the present and carried into the future?  The center will produce, promote and support demonstration projects that explore the application of sustainability principles and practices (traditional and modern) in both the natural and social sciences.

Outreach

The center will:

  • provide leadership in developing community-related activities.
  • recommend resolutions to and evaluations on issues.
  • connect broader sustainability vision with campus master plans and operations.
  • review ideas and pass them up to campus administration and leadership for potential approval.
