The goals for our retreat were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Build and strengthen relationships amongst team members<\/li>
- Review the structure of the authority file template for the \u02bb\u0100ina<\/strong><\/a> domain<\/li>
- Outline steps for the transition to Phase 2 of our project, He Waipuna<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Goal 1 was accomplished with lots of cheese \ud83d\ude42 Mahalo nui to our Evaluation Lead, Eleanor Kleiber, for providing an amazing charcuterie spread for lunch on the last day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Goals 2 and 3 were met with patient, creative problem-solving. Our conversations, brainstorms, and trials were full of questions about characteristics of \u02bb\u0101ina and how to articulate those characteristics. For example, are all geographical features (e.g. mountains, peaks, streams) noted in a repeating field? Or in separate, distinct fields? And which characteristics, then, link to other domains? Also, from what sources are we gleaning terms to express these characteristics?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\nWith post-its, chart paper, pens, markers, hand gestures, and late-night musings, we delved into these questions. What resulted was a draft of an authority form template for \u02bb\u0100ina<\/strong> that we all felt comfortable moving forward with. This template includes facets like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Inoa (name) – repeatable<\/em><\/li>
- Wahi (type of place\/geographic location, e.g. moku (island, district), mauna (mountain), kahawai (stream))<\/li>
- Hi\u02bbohi\u02bbona (features, e.g. mea kanu (plants), makani (winds), k\u016blana nalu (surf breaks)) – repeatable<\/em><\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

- Pilot test creating authority records for 25 \u02bb\u0101ina terms, using the authority file template<\/li>
- Identify authoritative resources about those terms<\/li>
- Apply terms to a selection of 50 resources (e.g. books, articles, artifacts)<\/li>
- Assess the quality, integrity, and rigor of this process, the resulting authority records, and the application of the terms to existing resources<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
The project retreat was a success on all accounts: we reached our project goals and grew deeper appreciation for one another. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ll close this post with the \u02bb\u014dlelo no\u02bbeau<\/a> that begins our Community Agreements: he huewai ola ke kanaka na K\u0101ne (\u02bb\u014cN #598). Pukui explains that one meaning of this phrase is “Man is K\u0101ne’s living water gourd.” Here, water is life, and K\u0101ne (one of our most important akua<\/a>) is the keeper of water. We each hold in us the amazing potential for life, to live life, and to give life. I hope this work helps to realize this potential for me, my \u02bbohana<\/a>, and our l\u0101hui<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
