A Letter from the Guest Editors: Meditation on Hawai`i as the Piko

Abstract

This special issue is to engage the NCORE community in respectful and joyful dialogues, situating your temporary presence in Hawaiʻi within the broader historical, social, cultural, and political contexts influencing the education and well-being of our people. The articles featured in this special issue are arranged in honor of the piko from which we draw inspiration, radiating from the center of our physical and metaphorical landscape and land-sea continuum outwards into our oceanscapes.
