Resources
The two film projects and book showcased in FOREST CALLS are the personal views and creative takes of the individuals who produced them. The current ʻakikiki conservation project is a huge undertaking, and covering all aspects of this important task was unfortunately impossible to do.
For that reason, here are some links redirecting to the various organizations behind this collaborative effort, as well as interviews with some of the key stakeholders of the project.
As the ‘akikiki conservation effort and the Forest Calls media project evolve over time, these resources will be updated.
If you think we omitted anyone and/or would like us to redirect to your organization or conservation effort, please make sure to let us know by sending us a message in our ‘CONTACT US’ page.
