Certainly I think the most important part is to reconnect our kids and everybody to the environment." Children at a beach shower, Koror. Palau Community College. "At the same time it is important to appreciate your culture, everything around it, and to know it well. I don’t think it matters whether they go do one thing and go back and do another thing, but I think at some point in time a person in Palau should know both. It ’s hard to mesh the two together, but you need to learn everything on this side and learn everything on that side, because it’s kind of a two-track society right now, and we’re not quite sure how we mesh them together. I think knowing both tracks fully is a step in the right direction.” it requires the community learning, experiencing and growing just as quick and even more quickly because of television and the changes that are coming so fast.

PCS is promoting the development and implementation of local Land Use Planning to ensure that development occurs in a sustainable manner. Top-down, government centered Land Use Planning is difficult in Palau where local communities own most of the resources. Thus, PCS has initiated the Community Visioning Project to create community support for land use planning efforts. Community-based Facilitators are being trained in leading their communities through the process of drafting and adopting a Vision Statement and Strategic Plan for their states. PCS is also working to ensure that there is national and developer-level support for these Community Vision Statements. Melekeok State, with the technical assistance of PCS and other partners, established the Ngardok Nature Reserve , containing Lake Ngardok and its watershed. Lake Ngardok is the largest natural freshwater lake in all of Micronesia.

The country's tropical waters are home to a diverse abundance of marine life, making Palau a paradise for divers. Natural scenery ranges from white sandy beaches to dense jungle. The authorities take steps to protect wildlife from hunters and poachers and to encourage sustainable tourism. OVERVIEW FACTS LEADERS MEDIA Palau became independent in 1994, after being part of a United Nations trust territory administered by the US for 47 years. The country relies on considerable financial aid from the US, provided under a Compact of Free Association which gives the US responsibility for Palau's defence and the right to maintain military bases there. The tourist industry, though low key, is growing in economic importance. Many visitors come from Taiwan, with which Palau has diplomatic ties. The government is Palau's largest employer.
