KĪPAIPAI
Empowering Descendants & Longterm Archaeological Site Care
About Kīpaipai
Kīpaipai is an archaeology training program created in partnership with ʻĀina Archaeology for genealogical descendants and the greater community to first learn about the historic preservation process and then apply this knowledge through participating in long-term preservation care of archaeological sites within their moku. The program seeks to enact the next step of preservation plans, presenting participants with the opportunity to reconnect with wahi kūpuna and ensure the longevity of care of these special places.
