Mission

To restore and safeguard the cultural, spiritual, and national foundations of the Native Hawaiian people. Grounded in communal land stewardship and structured governance.

Vision

A self-determined Hawaiian nation guided by ancestral knowledge, constitutional history, and international law.

LEGAL & HISTORICAL FOUNDATION

The Hawaiian Kingdom was internationally recognized in the 19th century.

The events of 1893 disrupted governance, but did not extinguish inherent sovereignty.

Restoration efforts continue within a framework of treaty history and Indigenous self-determination.
