Sustainable Indigenous Leadership

Tautua is a sustainable way of leading by serving. Polynesian values are about respect, humility, kindness and relationships.

For over 3000 years, Samoan people migrated from Asia and navigated and discovered the Pacific Ocean and Pacific Islands. We navigated from Asia to Madagascar and South America, implementing ancient navigational technology.
