MISSION
MISSION
Our mission is to protect and preserve our Native Hawaiian water systems in Nu'uanu Valley, O'ahu through community education, collaboration, and advocacy efforts.
What is an 'auwai?
An 'auwai is a traditional Hawaiian irrigation system used to divert water from streams to lo'i kalo (taro patches) and other agricultural areas. These systems were carefully designed to distribute water fairly among farmers while maintaining a sustainable balance with the natural ecosystem. In traditional Hawaiian society, the management of the 'auwai was a communal responsibility ensuring that water use supported both agriculture and the health of the watershed.
