Future Ancestors Program 2023
When you bring a diverse group of passionate young people together, magic happens!
Our Future Ancestors Program took place over 3 days and brought together youth with roots in Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Nauru, Kiribati, Solomon Islands, Cook Islands, Fiji, Aotearoa and Federated States of Micronesia. Now calling Meanjin (Brisbane) home, these Pasifika youth shared a powerful weekend of refining their leadership skills, storytelling, information sharing, making meaningful connections, reflection and building momentum to create change.

Genuine relationship building is and always has been at the heart of social change.
When we allow ourselves the time, space and opportunity to be vulnerable, tok stori and take up space, we create social change in the most organic and meaningful way.
This is what change looks like for us.
​
We extend our sincere gratitude to all our partners, collaborators and mentors for your tremendous support. We also thank all our volunteers, in particular, Robati Harrison, Moega Wright & Isaac Nasedra who played vital roles throughtout the program. It is a reminder that it always takes a village!
