Let's talk Our History
IVI
IVI is focused on the design and delivery of collaborative projects. These projects draw on the process, function, pedagogy and aesthetic principles of collective arts practices intrinsic to the Pacific. The projects explore, with partners and participants, how such practices can integrate scientific and faith based systems of knowledge that build capabilities for service to families and communities.
To date, IVI Projects have maintained a strong focus on the practice of ngatu (barkcloth) making. Each project is part of an ongoing learning process that evolves as experience, understanding, and relationships are deepened within a growing network of collaborators.

So far, IVI Projects connect, involve and learn with family and communities based in New Zealand, Tonga, Fiji, Australia, Samoa, Canada, Papua New Guinea, and Nepal.
