WEBfish Pacific celebrates:

rich cultural diversity within the Pacific
to explore movements of people, dynamic forms of culture, complex colonial histories, and experience in negotiating communities of many cultures, topics that can be translated
to global contexts

concepts of "aloha" and "peace"
to promote notions of collectivity, consensus-building, giving, and forgiveness that play prominant roles in almost every Pacific Island language and culture

island environments
to emphasize that society and culture cannot be separated from an understanding of sustaining Pacific Island environments for future generations and that identifying local and global impacts on relatively fragile island environments can inform how we interpret events in other places around the globe
