Fall 2024 Theme
The Past Within Us: Understanding Tā and Vā - Indigenous Spaces and Relationality - Aloha everyone! The Fall 2024 Exchange team proudly presents the theme for this semester. The theme delves into the concept of spaces and the ways it is strengthened and continuously built to strengthen relations. “The Past within Us” is a derivation from the wider theme of the Festival of Pacific Arts and Culture, calling on the intentionality of the preservation of indigenous cultures through the understanding of the importance of our relationships, especially to the concepts of Past, Present and Future. This theme is a call to strengthen our own understanding of the spaces within our cultures and understandings of this to move us forward, finding resilience in our relationships and existence. The Fall 2024 Exchange will take place on MONDAYS from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM, September 16 to November 18 at the Imin Conference Center. Looking forward to seeing you! Mahalo, The Fall 2024 Exchange Team |
