About Us
A global network of ancestral voyaging schools
​
Pacific Traditions Society (PTS) is a small non-profit organization with educational purpose, based in the USA. The project began in 1988 when the Chief of Taumako, Te Aliki Koloso Kaveia, asked for outside support from American anthropologist and sailor, Dr. Mimi George. We began as a research project in the Solomon Islands, but as more communities expressed interest in starting their own projects, we have grown into a global network of voyaging schools and communities. We are united by common goals:
