The mission of this working group is to articulate and shape issues of a secure, sustainable and resilient Hawaii as we move forward with global change. Considerations for government, public sector, and private sector transformation include: current policy reform, new policy proposals, critiques and potential solutions, assessments, new technology and traditional wisdom. Group members are encouraged to think "outside the box", look to all sources of information and inspiration with the goal of finding solutions for the islands of Hawaii, and by connecting outward, solutions as an example for island Earth.
