  8. PŪKO’A COUNCILwas named For “A grain of coral eventually grows into land,” reflecting our desire to bring Native Hawaiians into Higher Education

  9. PUKO’A Executive Council has 2 representatives from the 10 Campuses Each with their own council of Native Hawaiian Faculty.

  10. PŪKO’A HISTORY During 2001, Native Hawaiians at the Mānoa campus formed the Kūaliʻi Council, inviting all Hawaiians and Hawaiian serving programs to unite for greater advocacy for Native Hawns at UH Mānoa. In January 2002, Kūaliʻi hosted a System wide retreat and the Pūkoʻa UH System Native Hawaiian Advisory Council was formed.

  11. KŪALI’I WAS A HIGH CHIEF OF O’AHU IN 1700 AD • Equally adept at administration, war & caring for the people • Unified O’ahu, Moloka’i, Kaua’i & Ni’ihau into the Northern kingdom • Built many fishponds & lo’i kalo to feed the people

  12. KŪALIʻI & PŪKO’A COUNCILS Since the Kūaliʻi Council is at UH Mānoa and meets monthly, it does a lot of work in support of Pūkoʻa, both at the flagship campus and at the legislature Also, since Kūaliʻi serves 20 different Programs, as well as 28% of all Native Hawaiian students in the UH system, it has a larger budget request

  13. CHALLENGES FOR NATIVE HAWAIIANS *Hawaiians have more people in the prison system [9,101] than we do in all the UH System 10 campuses [8,155] *Have the lowest life expectancy & *The highest infant mortality

  14. NATIVE HAWAIIANS ARE • 23% of the population • 47% of Known Offenders • 37% of Prison Inmates • 30% of the Homeless • 28% of all Welfare Recipients • Highest % of all races incarcerated

  15. NATIVE HAWAIIANS • Have some of the highest rates of cancer, diabetes, and heart disease • Exceed the average unemployment rate on every major island • Have larger households that any other ethnicity • Have the highest number of teen pregnancies and unwed mothers

  16. NATIVE HAWAIIANS • Have the highest number of children in Child Protective Services, who are being adopted out to non-Hawaiian families • Have the highest number of children in special education classes • Have only 3.2% of our people with a graduate or professional degree

  17. CHALLENGES FOR HAWAIIANS Although we have lived in these islands for 100 generations, Native Hawaiians are marginalized in our own homeland.

  18. PŪKO’A COUNCIL believes that Native Hawaiian access to Higher Education is the only solution to such challenges for Native Hawaiians.

  19. PUKO’A MISSION • Increase the number of Native Hawaiian students, faculty, staff and administration in the university system to 23%, which mirrors the percentage of Hawaiians in Hawai’i’s general population.

  24. PUKO’A ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE Pūko'a reaches decisions on policies and recommendations through its Executive Council, which meets monthly. The Pūko'a Executive Council has an administrator, but no chair, since all are equal, although there are chairs of various subcommittees.

  25. PŪKO’A ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE All members can attend executive council meetings, but only the elected representatives or their proxies can vote. The Executive Council approves motions and policies in the traditional Hawaiian way, by consensus.
