The initiative works in the relational spaces (vā) between Pacific students, parents and communities, and non-Pacific educational leaders and teachers. We assume that Pacific people(s) are experts in the own lives and cultures, and hold information that would be of benefit to teachers of their young people. We also assume that teachers are experts in the classroom and have good intentions towards their Pacific students. The initiative is structured to take key information from Pacific communities to groups of teachers and invite them to change by translating their learning into enhanced educational practices of benefit to all.
