Education and Outreach
EMWP is largely a community based organization. Ultimately, the watershed must be taken care of by the people of Maui, just as it was many years ago by Hawaiians in the ahupuaʻa. Without the help and support of the community, business leaders and politicians, a healthy watershed and water supply cannot exist.
The EMWP Outreach Program offers four activites to the Maui community. Go to the Teachers’ Resources page for complete details.
1) Classroom presentations
2) Interpretive hikes
3) Educational displays at your community or school event
4) Native species art contest
We hope to educate the public on the importance and value of a healthy watershed. Our eyes and ears are open to ideas and suggestions. Look for us at local festivals, in classrooms, in your local paper, and on the highway (we have adopted a 2-mile stretch of Hana Highway near Keʻanae).
