Hawaiʻi Life in the Time of COVID-19
The Hawaiʻi Life in the Time of COVID-19 Project is designed to engage our Hawaiʻi communities in examining, articulating and sharing the impacts of COVID-19 upon our Hawaiʻi island ways of life, livelihoods, health, families, communities, education, values and outlooks for the future. We have designed this project so that our community can reflect upon, share, and document their experiences; acknowledge significant events; honor courageous acts and selfless sacrifices; and help to understand social and economic trends as they unfold.
