{"product_id":"malama-honua-hokulea-a-voyage-of-hope-9781938340697","title":"Malama Honua: Hokule'a -- A Voyage of Hope","description":"From the launch in Hawai'i in May 2014, around the world 60,000 miles, to 23 different countries, this beautiful hardcover book chronicles Hokule'a's epic mission to raise awareness of and nurture worldwide sustainability. Interwoven with descriptions of Hokule'a's experiences in port are the voices of the master navigators and crew members, who guide the ship along the ocean's trackless path using only stars, birds, wind, and seas -- non-instrumental wayfinding techniques-- and the local pioneers -- scientists, teachers, and children touched by Hokule'a' -- who work tirelessly to weather the many environmental challenges in our modern lives. This is a story about our need to draw together into one global community. By respecting one another and nature's delicate and intricate systems, this book captures the many ways indigenous cultures are committed to living in ecological balance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAllen, Jennifer:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eJennifer Allen\u003c\/b\u003e, the author of two previously published books, has been a journalist for over twenty years.

We use experiential educational programs that inspire students and their communities to respect and care for themselves, each other, and their natural and cultural environments. PVS has taught thousands of people through its education, training, research, voyaging and communication programs. The organization teaches in multiple forms of classrooms while seeking innovative methods of outreach to today's and tomorrow's children. Currently, a large part of PVS- mission-focused activities are centered around the organization's voyaging canoes, H'k'le'a and Hikianalia, and the M'lama Honua Worldwide Voyage. The canoes serve as models of island sustainability, and their crews seek to share - Island Wisdom, Ocean Connections, Global Lessons- both in Hawai'i and around Island Earth.\"\u003cbr\u003eEt al...\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Patagonia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50446594933010,"sku":"9781938340697","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_5c4b4db3-11d5-46c6-a103-226a290804a1.jpg?v=1729709144","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/malama-honua-hokulea-a-voyage-of-hope-9781938340697","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
