This probably shouldn’t come as a surprise, given the leadership roles women take in our community, be it within the private or public sector, the national government and parliament, non-government organizations as well as traditional leadership.

Opening Speaker: Tessa Temata, New Zealand High Commissoner to the Cook Islands.
Kia Maeva Tatou - a celebration of us, a celebration of Cook Islands contemporary art, of Pacific voices in a changing world, and in this case of our Vaine Cook Islands artists.
