NOTES: |
Land has long mean security, identity and status for the people of the Marshall Islands. Before land was handed down orally, through stories, songs and legends. Knowledge of the lands boundaries was stored safely in their minds, there was no organized system of ownership in records. Today land in the Marshall Islands retains its customary importance but it has a new system that was created by the Government of Marshall Islands to help Marshallese protect their heritage and develop economically by putting this knowledge to paper. This video looks at the role, this system will play in helping the Marshallese carry the legacy of their land into the future. |
