From our lands to yours, from our kūpuna to your ancestors, we welcome you to Hawai‘i Ko Pae ‘Āina. It is a privilege to host the Healing Our Spirit Worldwide movement in our homeland.
Riding the swells of past successes, this week we will paddle together in this canoe, dig in deep, and catch the waves of momentum. In the spirit of unity, Healing Our Spirit Worldwide – The Sixth Gathering will bring us together, as in a canoe, to connect with one another and celebrate all the good work being done toward healing—healing ourselves as individuals, families, communities and nations.
Let us celebrate the wisdom of our ancestors, let us teach and learn from one another, let us rejoice in the young people, let us eat together. Touch our sands, get to know us, share the aloha of our lands. More than 350 presenters will be featured throughout the week, weekend events will take you out of Waikiki and into our countryside communities, daily treks will introduce you to many of our storied and sacred places on O'ahu and throughout the islands.
As you greet each day, as you explore our wahi pana, know that no one is an island. Hawaiian families, practitioners, communities, organizations, agencies and Hawaiians from all islands welcome you to our shores. You will meet us throughout the week.
We believe Hawai‘i has a lot to offer Indigenous communities to Heal Our Spirits Worldwide. Welcome to the Sixth Gathering. Aloha!
