‘ĀINAVIS
About the Program
‘ĀINAVIS is a collaboration with After Oceanic designed to help spark dialogue regarding the role of ‘āina and ‘āina organizations in Hawai‘i, and how they contribute to the well-being of everyone. ‘Āina means land, that which feeds. VIS is short for vision, visibility; strength.
The project consists of an index of non-profit and heritage organizations in Hawai‘i that span 136 years of ‘āina activity from 1886 to present (2022).
Advisors and collaborators to ‘AINAVIS include: Kaulunani Urban and Regional Forestry Program, Hau‘oli Mau Loa Foundation, Kua ‘Āina ‘Ulu ‘Auamo, University of Hawai‘i Associate Professor Mehana Vaughan, and many community stakeholders.
