Working with staff from the National Park of American Samoa, this bi-lingual flyer was created to highlight the natural resources and the Samoan cultural connections.
National Park of American Samoa: a place of spectacular beauty at our doorstep
Tim Carruthers and Jane Hawkey from IAN spent a week with the National Park Service staff of the National Park of American Samoa to create this flyer. The purpose of this science communication tool is to convey the connection between the unique and fragile natural resources of American Samoa and the Samoan cultural practices and beliefs. The flyer will be distributed by the park to the Samoan community, church groups, and schools, as well as to off-island park visitors, to promote good stewardship and sustainable use of the natural resources found in these remote South Pacific islands.

The Integration & Application Network is an initiative of the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science.
