“Our mission is to connect communities across maui nui to care for and restore healthy ecosystems on which hawai'i's people depend. We want to share and learn from our diverse experiences, lessons, and best practices to help member sites malama (care for) specific makai (seaward) areas.”

“We are a group of community and partner organizations across maui nui (maui, lana'i, moloka'i, and kaho'olawe) who are exerting our kuleana (responsibility) to care for the ocean in a way that honors our kupuna (ancestors), and the traditional and cultural practices of our places. We work to protect and restore healthy coastal and marine ecosystems for the people of maui nui using powerful place-based, collaborative strategies. Our network was started in february 2013 after community leaders from across maui nui came together asking: 'do you want to form a network so we can connect and share lessons learned with each other?' the network includes 9 community group alaka'i and haumana members that do amazing work in their own areas across maui nui for big changes collectively, with the technical support of 4 kako'o members and with the generous financial support from kokua members.”
