A Inviting Media Personnel from the Pacific Island Region to Japan
The Sasakawa Peace Foundation 12,700,000 (yen) This project enables media personnel from Pacific Island nations to visit Japanese counterparts and deepen their knowledge of Japan. First, a host group comprised of Japanese journalists and intellectuals was formed and this year's visit itinerary was finalized, after which applications were invited and screened by the Pacific Islands News Association. The nine successful applicants visited Kamakura and Miyakojima from 24 June 1 to July. In kamakura, they met for talks with local students and municipal officials and observed operations at a community FM radio station. The Miyakojima leg of the visit included talks and exchange activities with local residents and high school students, inspection of a local development and environment project, and talks on the topic of remote-island journalist with Japanese counterparts. Using the information and material they gathered through these activities, the participants produced feature articles and programs for their respective newspapers and radio stations in their home countries. This year's project also included a visit to Tonga by five members of the Japanese host committee. They met for talks with local media personnel and gathered material on development in Tonga for features which subsequently appeared in their respective newspapers and television programs in Japan.

http://geoimages.berkeley.edu/GeoImages/About_GeoImages.html
The Geo-Images Project The Geo-Images project was conceived as a way of making images (mostly photographs) that are useful in teaching geography more widely available. It was conceived, constructed, and is maintained by G. Donald Bain, in the Geography Computing Facility, University of California at Berkeley ( dbain@socrates.berkeley.edu The Problem
Most people teaching geography or other environmental subjects have their own collections of slides, frequently the product of years, or even decades, of travel and diligent work. Students agree that good pictures make a class come alive. But few of us are willing to loan our slides, even to our closest colleagues. Duplicate slides are never as good as the originals, and there is no practical way to include location and subject captions with the slides. Frequent use exposes a slide collection to possible damage or loss. So an individual's slide collection is really only accessible when he or she can personally present it. The Solution
Digital storage of photographic images, and their distribution over computer networks, solves many of these problems. Duplication is easy, cheap, and the duplicates are identical to the originals. Degradation and loss are no longer an issue. Captions can be stored in databases associated with the images, providing sorting and searching capabilities that would be almost impossible otherwise. Collections can be shared over the internet with colleagues, or with strangers. If you have an educational project that could make use of Geo-Images materials, please read the section on

About us
Send me a Brochure Tripbuilder (Shopping Cart) Send me a Quotation ... Pacific News member of French Polynesia History Just how the Polynesian peoples came to populate their islands of the Pacific is a subject of some debate. What is clear, however, is that they were great sailors and navigators who traversed vast distances of open ocean to settle as far and wide as present-day French Polynesia, Hawaii, New Zealand, parts of the New Guinea island, Tonga and the Cook Islands. It's thought that they left South-East Asia around 3000 or 4000 years ago and began to arrive in present-day French Polynesia around 300 AD. Islands were originally ruled by chieftains who commanded huge fleets of outrigger canoes; religious practices at this time included human sacrifices. Some of the first European visitors, which included Samuel Wallis Louis-Antoinne de Bougainville (1768) and James Cook (1769), returned with stories of a paradise on earth inhabited by 'noble savages' and Venus-like women whose sexual favours were freely offered to the visitors. Europe was abuzz with stories of a tropical haven of free love when Bougainville returned to Paris and this myth attracted the likes of Herman Melville Robert Louis Stevenson and Paul Gauguin The most famous event in the region's recent history was the Mutiny on the Bounty . It was on Tahiti and the Austral island of Tubuai that Fletcher Christen and his mutineers sought refuge after setting

    HUMAN PALAEOECOLOGY IN THE MARQUESAS ISLANDS, FRENCH POLYNESIA (With Dr. Melinda Allen, University of Auckland and Dr. John Flenley, Massey University, New Zealand) Funded by The National Geographic Society
    As the foregoing emphasizes, the coral reef of Anaho was an important resource in the past. To better understand this geographic feature and its economic resources, Aswani will carry out dive surveys along multiple transects across the reef platform. Local fishers will be interviewed to gather information on marine resources along the north-to-eastern coast generally and to collect data on traditional fishing practices. Comparison of this baseline information with the archaeological data will allow for reconstruction of the reef's biotic history and for an evaluation of human impact on reef resources. Aswani brings to this study over a decade of research into traditional marine fisheries in the Solomon Islands, including aspects of technology, marine tenure and conservation (e.g., Aswani 1998, 1999).

    Polynesia in Review: Issues and Events, 1 July 2003 to 30 June 2004 French Polynesia
    David Chappell Two overriding issues stand out in the past year or so in French Polynesia: another change of statute, this time to a supposedly more autonomous "overseas country" of France rather than an "overseas territory," and a surprising assembly election in May 2004, which ended the twenty-year reign of Gaston Flosse as president and brought into office his longtime pro-independence rival, Oscar Temaru. No local leader, however, can easily escape the harsh reality of severe economic dependency caused by the introduction of nuclear testing in the 1960s. French military spending distorted the communal Polynesian society and created a middle class that fed on French-subsidized government jobs and patronage and enriched itself through corrupt business monopolies and real estate investments at the expense of the laboring majority. The number one local industry remained tourism. In 2003, the number of visitors was over 200,000 (nearly equaling the local population), which represented a recovery from the negative impact of the events of 11 September 2001 on air travel. North America, and mainly the United States, provided the largest number of visitors, with 77,000 or 40 percent of the market (and also the largest single increase over 2002, about 25 percent); it was followed closely by Europe, with 74,000 or 38 percent of the market; then Japan with 20,000 (10 percent); Australia, New Zealand, and New Caledonia with 16,000 (8
