鈥淲e are delighted to be able to collaborate with you on this museum project because we feel that historical information as this, is critical for Bougainville, both as tangible and intangible鈥�to create systems and processes for digital and print repatriation of collections back to Bougainville. There are many collections from Bougainville that are stored in museums around the globe, and thankfully have been preserved. Sadly, we have lost many of these鈥�[this] is a great way to regain some of these lost knowledges.鈥�

鈥�听Dr. Jeffrey Noro, Executive Director of The Kainake Project

These materials 鈥渁re vital for the communities and people of Bougainville to rediscover and trackback on their history. It is unfortunate for us that nothing as such you have in your museum can be found today on Bougainville. That is why we are so privileged to connect and collaborate on this project.鈥�

鈥� Mr. Junior Novera, Program Leader for Kainake

The relationships between Bougainvilleans听and the University of baby直播app Museum of Natural History began with Conrad Bud Johnson鈥檚 collecting. These relationships听were unknown for years until they were听rediscovered in the collection听thanks to听a CU student's interest in researching collections from the Pacific for an anthropology class. Building on the realization of the wealth of materials and documentation in the museum, CU baby直播app and students听put together a book about the photos, objects, and documents in the collection and sent it to Dr. Jeffrey Noro, Director of Policy at the Papua New Guinea Science and Technology Secretariat, and Junior Novera, an ecology PhD candidate in Queensland, Australia. Due to the long history of colonial presence and the Bougainville Civil War (1988-1998), a lot the island鈥檚 material culture 鈥媤as destroyed during wartime or听is housed in museums around the world. The hope of the museum and community partners is that the book, this exhibition, and related conversations will turn the budding partnerships into long-lasting, sustainable relationships.
