A group of University of Hawaii students are setting upon a project to affect greater participation and interest in development plans for the Kakaako District.
In order for people of Oahu to care about and understand what development in Honolulu means personally for them, we think more people should KNOW KAKAAKO.
This blog aims to improve communication and outreach to a wider audience of stakeholders around the city and island.
This blog will act as a place for sharing ideas, opinions, and details on current development plans. The effort here is to put plans for Kakaako within a larger urban context - relating issues and interests in Kakaako with those of broader Honolulu and Oahu.
A variety of topics will structure the discussion on this blog, including accessibility/transportation, housing, culture, sustainability, economy/finance, community, agriculture, urban infill etc.
From a diverse background and skill set, this group of Urban & Regional Planning students will provide a perspective often overlooked by vested stakeholders, politicians, and developers - giving attention to important advocacy and consideration on social equity, environmental stewardship, safety and security, health and well-being, etc.
