PAPUA NEW GUINEA - BUAI DIGITAL INFORMATION PROJECT www.pngbuai.com Local and Regional Book Publishing for Local and Regional Information By: Linda Crowl, Publications Fellow, Institute of Pacific Studies, University of the South Pacific, presented at 1997 Waigani Seminar HISTORY OF PUBLISHING IN THE PACIFIC ISLANDS I analyse book publishing in five phases, which have overlapped. None of these phases has ended or is likely to end. These phases are publishing by religious organizations, colonial governments, independent governments, transnational agencies (regional and international governmental and non-governmental organizations), and individuals and firms. Religious organizations Member of the London Missionary Society began publishing in the Society Islands in 1817; the first publication was a spelling book. Soon afterward, publishing by the LMS and other religious orders occurred in other islands: 1822 in Hawaii; 1831 in Tonga; 1834 in the Cook Islands; 1837 in the Gambier Islands; 1839 in Fiji; 1844 in Wallis; 1848 in Vanuatu; 1852 in the Loyalty Islands; 1854 in New Caledonia; 1856 in the Caroline Islands; 1860 in the Marshall Islands and 1863 in the Gilbert Islands (Lingenfelter 1967). Many church histories contain references to their publishing activities. Because churches were involved not only in religious proselytizing but also, as importantly, in teaching literacy and numeracy, then later subject matter, they produced grammars, readers and textbooks. (Note above that the first publication was a spelling book). Contrary to what might be expected for early efforts among small, semi-literate populations, the print runs of these early books were quite large: e.g., from 1817 to 1822 Ellis printed 20,000 books (Lingenfelter 1967:24).

Index Contents Previous page Next page Oceania Newsletter 18, March 1997 'TEACHING THE PACIFIC FORUM': A REMARKABLE PROJECT 'Teaching The Pacific Forum' (TTPF) is a Pacific Island Nations project for teachers in history, social studies and social sciences who aim at modernizing secondary school programs by focussing on concepts of shared regional identity and history. TTPF offers regularity and continuity in communication within nations, and across the Pacific, by funding regional workshops, conference presentations, and publication of reports, guides and prototype classroom materials. TTPF builds on a series of regional workshops for history teachers and takes a wider scope by including the study and teaching of geography, politics, environmental studies and generally all social studies and social sciences, reflecting the linked reality of such teaching in the Pacific Islands. In 1995-96 the project's activities included regional workshops in Honiara (December 1995) and Hilo (July 1996), in-country workshops in Port Vila (September 1996), Nadi/Suva (October 1996) and Port Moresby (November 1996); the publication of Our History in Our Own Words A Guide to 100 Good Books A Guide to Student Essays and Projects the Honiara Report and Teachers, Teaching and History

Who we are What we do Where we work Learn more ... Search the site History of FSP/Counterpart International The Foundation for the Peoples of the South Pacific On January 27, 1965, the Foundation for the Peoples of the South Pacific (FSP) was formally incorporated as a tax-exempt, non-profit, non-partisan, non-sectarian voluntary international organization. Dedicated to the rehabilitation, welfare and growth of the Pacific islands following the devastation of World War II, FSP honed a unique approach to development. Unlike many large international agencies and donor governments, which sent in teams of overseas experts to run programs, FSP focused on building the institutions of a society that could help itself. When FSP began its work in the Pacific Islands in 1963, almost all of the islands were colonial societies with powerful colonial officers running the civil service, education, health and other national structures. FSP became the principal secular non-governmental organization (NGO) to assist islanders during their transition to independence and sovereignty. When the New Hebrides became independent as Vanuatu in 1980, for example, its first Prime Minister and its first Foreign Minister were graduates of FSP programs. FSP was the also the only NGO to work with all of the churches in a region where ninety-five per cent of the people are Christian. In 1967 FSP published a nine volume socio-economic survey on the Pacific Islands, and in 1968 its office in Sydney, Australia was established to coordinate programs in the Pacific region. This office grew into the first FSP developed nation independent affiliate and is today known as

The relentless push for new pharmaceutical products was bound to find its way to the bottom of the ocean sooner or later. The project focused on the emerging concerns of community activists and other scholars about international property rights and how developing countries and their coastal communities could benefit from the exploration of their marine habitat. It was also interested in determining if bioprospecting could also provide opportunities to help local people conserve their marine resources and develop their communities.

Current Development Trends and Issues ... Country Strategy and Program Update 2003-2005: Kiribati I. Country Strategy 1. In September 2000, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) Board approved ADB’s current strategy for its Pacific developing member countries (PDMCs). The ADB strategy for Kiribati supports the principal objective of the Government’s development policies to promote improvement in the standard of living of the people of Kiribati. This objective was confirmed by the National Development Strategy (NDS), 2000-2003. The next NDS is expected in 2003. The timing of this country strategy and program update (CSPU) for Kiribati is being coordinated with the NDS schedule to ensure that the CSPU is consistent with the Government’s development strategy. 2. The NDS recognizes the following unique advantages of Kiribati: (i) large and wellmanaged foreign reserves in the Revenue Equalization Reserve Fund (RERF), (ii) a history of sound fiscal management, and (iii) a strong traditional culture that promotes social stability and family welfare. However, the current NDS also identifies several development constraints: (i) limited natural resources, especially land and fresh water; (ii) a small domestic market with little potential for economies of scale; (iii) widely scattered and sparsely populated islands; (iv) difficult and expensive access to major international markets; (v) increasingly competitive international environment for tourism and investment; (vi) a population that has limited understanding of and experience with business concepts and practices; (vii) a labor force lacking in education and job skills; and (viii) social and cultural constraints to the development of land and capital markets.

M. The Simmons Papers The Pacific Collection of The University of Adelaide Henry Evans (Harry) Maude, Colonial Administrator and Historian Harry Maude, like many of his and earlier generations, had read and responded to the timeless appeal of the novels of Herman Melville, Robert Louis Stevenson, Charles Stoddard, Jack London and Louis Becke, and been fired with a passion to experience the romance of the South Seas: Brought up on a diet of The Swiss Family Robinson and Ballantyne's Coral island, and later on Stevenson, Melville and Stoddard, with Stewart's Handbook of the Pacific Islands under my pillow, I had only one idea in life and that was to go out to the South Seas and stay there. He was fortunate therefore that in 1928, the year he commenced reading for an Honours degree in Anthropology at Cambridge University, students were for the first time permitted to specialise in India and the South Pacific as an alternative to Africa. In that year he read as much as he could on Pacific anthropology, laying the foundations of his library with early purchases by authors like Rivers, Haddon and Malinowski. These did not dispel his own vision of the South Seas and on graduation Maude nominated the remote Gilbert and Ellice Islands Colony - "where Melville found his Mardi and Stackpole his exemplar of the blue lagoon" - as his sole choice in his application for a cadetship in the Colonial Administrative Service.

STATEMENT OF THE PRESIDENT OF KIRIBATI, HIS EXCELLENCY TEBURORO TITO TO THE UNITED NATIONS MILLENNIUM SUMMIT NEW YORK, 8 September 2000 Honorable Colleagues, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen I bring warm greetings from the people of Kiribati in the Central Pacific to our wonderful hosts, the President and people of the United States, and to all leaders and peoples of the world present here today. I also take this opportunity to offer my congratulations to the Government and people of Tuvalu, our good neighbor, for their admission as the 189 th member of the UN. I am very grateful for this opportunity to meet and share with you some thoughts on the theme ' The role of the United Nations in the 21 st century'. 251 days ago the world watched Kiribati and the other Pacific nations lead the celebration of the first dawn and sunrise of the new millennium. Our celebration theme was 'World Peace in Harmony with Nature' which perfectly matched the natural and pristine beauty of Millennium Island. The people of Kiribati welcomed the new millennium with songs and traditional dancing expressing their desire and hopes for a better world rich in human love, peace and happiness. The most difficult question for me is "How can we do it?" While we individually know how to improve the lives of our peoples in our respective villages, towns or countries, we cannot escape the fact that the building of a better world requires us as leaders and peoples to think, talk and walk together. Our individual remedies and approaches resonates our differences in values and situations, however our common destination is a better world for all, one in which all human beings feel loved and needed, a world free of human injustice and cruelty, a world in harmony with nature.

Asia-Pacific Regional Press Freedom Seminar Country Report - Kiribati There are two main papers in Kiribati and both are weekly. The first is the Uekera. This is a government owned paper managed and operated by a Board appointed by a government Minister. lt was started many years ago well befiore our independence in 1979. lt has a circulation of around 1800 most of which are sold in Tarawa, the main urban area at 60 cents Australian per copy. Recently some are beginning to be sold on the outer Islands. It is written in tihe local language although there is a significant content in English. As a government paper it tends to follow the government line and keeps away from issues that are likely to generate political controversy. The degree the paper does this depends very much on the attitude of the government of the day. The Kiribati Newstar is the only other commercial paper. It is owned by four people who are concerned by the absence of a free and independent paper in the country. It is written in I- Kiribati but sometimes it carries some stories in English. It has a circulation similar to that of governnent and again the main market: is the urban area. But a lot is being done to sell the paper to people living on outer islands. Since the paper started, it is fair to say that there is now contention between the two papers and we expect that this can only be good for the country in the long term. In addition to these commercial papers we also have two papers produced by the Catholic Church and the Kinbati Protestant Church. The Catholic paper is a monthly one while the Protestant Church produces a weekly paper. The focus of both is on religious matters but the Protestant Church paper is fast becoming just like the other commercial papers.
