We Are All COFA Citizens: Re-imagining the Compact Relationship in Hawaii

Mānoa Campus, William S. Richardson School of Law, Classroom 2

"We Are All COFA Citizens: Re-imagining the Compact Relationship in Hawaii and the World”

Co-sponsored by the Matsunaga Institute for Peace and the William S. Richardson School of Law

As we face increased public scrutiny of the Compact of Free Association, and a rise in incidents of discrimination against Micronesians in Hawaii, it is time to re-consider our COFA agreement from both sides of the relationship. While popular discourse dwells on the "free association" clause of the Compact, on this Peace Day/Constitution Day, we will examine the contributions and sacrifices of the entire Micronesian region and what they mean to the US military security.
