We are only 2 years old, but building bravely has helped us achieve a lot
Our Impact so far…
Restoring 2 Kastom Haus
In Aoke/Langalanga Lagoon, Malaita Province, we restored the Fae’fae—a traditional gathering place once used for storytelling, ceremony, and conflict resolution—reviving it as a living classroom for cultural learning and healing.
This year, we’re restoring the Biu’abu in Maeuria, Tobaita, North Malaita, continuing our work to reclaim sacred spaces for community and kastom.
16 tribal chiefs
We reunited 16 chiefs and elders from 6 communities and 9 tribes in Aoke/Langalanga for the first time in 40 years—restoring traditional roles within community-led governance.
120+ people
We’ve helped over 120 people in 2 marginalized communities in Gizo/Kolombangara document endangered practices and ancestral knowledge that risk being lost.
2 communities
In Gizo/Kolombangara, we’re working with Solomon Kiribati communities through our Waste to Wealth initiative—using kastom to drive climate action, manage waste, and strengthen intergenerational learning.
In Lilisiana (Aoke/Langalanga), we’re building a 60m sea wall to protect sacred sites and the community’s only access to their livelihoods, reclaiming land lost to rising sea levels.
