About This Course
This session invites participants into moʻolelo and historical accounts that reveal the spiritual and practical roles of ʻawa in Hawaiian life — as ceremony, as a connection to akua and ʻāina, and as a medium for diplomacy, discussion, and conflict resolution. These stories will serve as starting points for open conversation, where we can share manaʻo, reflect together, and explore how ʻawa might continue to live in our classrooms, across our campus, and in our own lives. The session will be guided by dialogue, storytelling, and collective reflection. Enrollment is open only to kumu who attended the ʻAwa Noa session during the K-12 In-Service Day on August 22, 2025.
