Indigenous Kanak tourism in New Caledonia promotes the transformation of gender relationships. Tourist activity is an opportunity for women to reduce violence committed against them by men who evolve in a customary context weakened by the legacy of a colonialist system and an unsuccessful self-determination. Unlike mass tourism, indigenous Kanak tourism invites everyone (local population and tourists) to question otherness and the meaning of existence.
