What the Federal Reset Means for Hawaiʻi: June 16th @ 1pm
Our Capacity BuildingWorking Group is opening an upcoming conversation to the broader Funder Hui network on Tuesday, June 16 @1pm.
Join us for a conversation on public funding, community impact, and how funders can better understand and respond to the challenges ahead.
As federal budget cuts reshape the funding landscape, this discussion will explore what the changing fiscal environment means for Hawaiʻi and the role philanthropy can play in responding to emerging needs and opportunities.
Speakers:
Emma Kern, Hawaiʻi Data Collaborative
Olin Lagon, Social Entrepreneur and Co-Founder of Purple Maiʻa
Year of The Ocean Series: June 17 @10
The drive to create and sustain large marine protected areas must come from the people who know and are most deeply connected to these places—Indigenous and local communities. Meaningful conservation takes time, relationship-building, and a diverse set of partners, including committed champions at the highest levels of government to advance policy and funders who understand that sustained investment is essential for lasting protections. Our guests will dive into these topics and more.
Speakers:
Sheila Raha Sarhangi, Executive Director, Executive Director, Papahānaumokuākea and Pacific Islands Heritage Coalitions
Grace Reville, Program Officer, Blue Nature Alliance
Dr. Kekuewa Kikiloi, Co-Chair, Papahānaumokuākea Native Hawaiian Cultural Working Group, Associate Professor Center for Hawaiian Studies UHM
