In this episode, the DOM discusses food insecurity on Guam--how we got here and how our people can move toward an accessible, healthy, food-sovereign future.
The Department of Maolek is a hypothetical, local government agency whose proposals are rooted in inafa'maolek, reciprocity, and restoring right relationships--with our ourselves, with each other, with the land and water, and with the future generations that will inherit our home.
