(42) WILD12 "Hinano Teavai-Murphy: Wisdom from the Ocean"

Hinano was born on the atoll of Vairaatea located in the central-eastern part of the Tuamotu islands of Tahiti. She is the President of the Association Te Pu Atitia and the Cultural Director of Tetiaroa Society. Growing up, her language and traditions were a huge part of her life. They inspired her to teach and fight for the environment and her people’s culture.

In this episode, Hinano shares memories of her grandmother’s stories and the lessons she learned from fishing with her father. These moments shaped her life and the mission she carries forward.
