Deadline to apply: October 15, 2020
Final presentation: November 15, 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused havoc in our lives and turned our world upside down.  We are faced with high unemployment, business closures, and a dramatic rise in public health and safety problems. As a community, we need to find a new direction and initiatives to reshape and enrich our quality of life.

Overdependence on the visitor industry is no longer a viable option.  COVID-19 hit this industry so hard it may never be the same, and neither will we. A survey of Hawaii residents was recently conducted to solicit ideas on what Maui County’s “New Normal” should look like.  We received promising suggestions and comments.  

​We are now casting a wider net to harness ideas from the minds of our youth.  Help us search for the right way: imi pono.
