Our Mission

The Climate Resilience Collaborative (CRC) is a hui of Hawaiʻi-based scientists and practitioners working in pilina with communities across our pae ʻāina to understand a changing climate and prepare for what lies ahead. Grounded in aloha ʻāina and ʻike kūpuna, we weave together advanced climate modeling with ʻike from our communities to support decisions that honor place, culture, and future generations.

CRC studies how rising seas, increasing heat, extreme rainfall, and other climate stressors are reshaping our ʻāina—our neighborhoods, kahakai, wai, and critical infrastructure. Through the development of accessible, science-based tools, shared openly in the spirit of kuleana, we empower communities, practitioners, and decision-makers to co-create pathways toward a more resilient and thriving Hawaiʻi.
