-	~~''[[Media:PA_2008_report~~.~~pdf\|Read what participants from our 2008~~ workshop ~~had to say~~ about their ~~experiences~~.~~]]''~~	+	In October 2009, High school and college students of Pacific Islander descent spent three days at ANU to get a taste of university life with a Pacific flavour. They were part of the second annual workshop organised by Pasifika Australia, a network of ANU students and staff who are passionate about identity and equity issues affecting Pacific Island communities in Australia.
		+	The thirty young people from across ACT and NSW arrived at ANU on the 2nd of October, and attended a series of lectures and panels that introduced them to Pacific Studies and Climate and Water issues in the Pacific. They went on to visit the Vaka Moana Exhibition at the National Museum of Australia. But the highlight for many of students was their time at the campus of Kioloa.

-	~~''[[Media:PA_2009_flier.pdf \|Spread~~ the ~~word about~~ the ~~2009 workshop! Download or e-mail this beautiful poster]]''~~	+	They spent the weekend working together to combine their own stories with themes from the ANU lectures in a series of creative workshops and performances. Their efforts were supported by ANU undergraduate student mentors and ANU Pacific Islander staff.

-	~~[[Image:PA_mini~~-~~lecture~~.~~JPG\|200px\|left\|thumb]] [[Image:Mixtape6_dance~~.~~JPG\|200px\|right\|thumb]]~~	+	The workshop was made possible by the kind and generous support of an ANU Equity Support Grant, the Pacific Studies Program in the Faculty of Asian Studies, ANU College of Asia and the Pacific, The Asia-Pacific Learning Community and Bruce Hall. Special thanks go to all of our guest speakers and student mentors, the South West Youth Peer Education and Malaemie Fruean of the NSW Council for Pacific Communities, as well as Ena Tupa’i for nominating young people to attend.

	The Pacific Studies workshop gives school students of Pacific Island heritage a taste of the opportunities available to study the Pacific at university level, as well as introducing students to university life more generally. Workshop participants are encouraged to draw on their own cultures, heritages, and identities to explore Oceania. The workshop focuses on young people's Pacific Island cultures and identities as a valuable asset, which can enrich and be further explored through university study.

		+	‘Oceanic Snapshots’ featured several brief speeches, where a range of individuals explain their connection with the Pacific. Over light dinner, each of these ‘snapshots’ provided stimulus for open, informal group discussions. All participants were be encouraged to express their own ideas and points of view through a series of collaborative activities.
		+
		+	This event was a chance for people who are connected with the Pacific to share and compare their diverse insights and perspectives. It will also provided an opportunity to strengthen links between different sources of knowledge about Oceania and Pacific issues, and to break down the artificial divide between ‘academic’ and ‘community’ perspectives.
