Micronesian Voices in Hawai'i
was a unique opportunity to listen
to and learn from Micronesian leaders and others in the community about
steps they are taking to address some of the challenges faced by new
migrants from the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Federated States
of Micronesia, and the Republic of Palau. Spurred by the Compacts of
Free Association between their countries and the United States, many
Micronesians have moved to Hawai'i. Many are serving our community in
professional capacities across the state. Others, however, are facing
challenges in their struggle to achieve economic self-sufficiency. In
the following videos, panelists and featured speakers talk about some of
the challenges faced by migrants and about community-based initiatives
that are responding to these challenges. The final video contains
conference recommendations for policymakers.
