Proposed Agrivillage

Global Mana Development sign development agreement, and secure 2000 acre Big Island Papaikou Agrivillage development. The sustainability focused innovative project offers a solution to resolve Hawaii local food supply shortages, and may well become a breakthrough scalable Agrivillage model worldwide. Hawaii local government being asked to sign a memorandum of understanding, to prevent any unforeseen food supply disruption.
When 5th generation farmer Steven Shropshire of Aloha Green, a Big Island resident and landowner, saw the recent COVID shutdowns, he, like others, quickly recognized the food supply shortage that any unforeseen event can cause. Such events may trigger a shutdown of shipping and flights in and out of the islands. Mr. Shropshire approached Global Mana Development, a mana-focused development group, about his micro-farming community Agrivillage vision for Ku'u Papa ikou, located just a few miles north of Hilo on Big Island. Global Mana Development reviewed the comprehensive architectural plans, which included over $200,000 in drawings and diligence. The plans illustrated micro-farming, community-planned self-sustaining farms, water and waste management, and energy supply for the region. The Agrivillage concept aligned with Mana's focus and presented a tangible, practical solution to prevent food shortages and act as stewards of the land. On July 1st, 2024, Global Mana Development [https://globalmanadevelopment.com]agreed to sign a development agreement for the large Agrivillage project. Next steps is for Global Mana to champion the vision to community, local and state governments with a view to developing and realizing the planned self-sustainable micro farming community project known as Papa Ikou Agrivillage.

Mana in Polynesian cultures is considered a supernatural force that permeates the universe. Anyone or anything can have mana. The Polynesians believed it to be the cultivation or possession of energy and power. The leadership of Global Mana Development subscribes to Mana too, and has written science-based non-fiction books on the topic of the 'force within us all that unites all'. In 2014, the CEO of Global Mana Development was asked by the facility at research based then top 5 world university UCL to be a part of the MSC program to educate a new generation of policymakers. Research based Global Mana Development's spokesperson says, "When we discovered Steven Shropshire's plan for the Agrivillage, we agreed that the Agrivillage could be a solution for the next unforeseen world event to trigger a famine pandemic for Hawaii, should flights and shipping be disrupted.

The unforeseen, as the name suggests, was unlikely to happen in 2020, and nevertheless, it did happen. A quick, immediate solution by the government at the state, federal and local levels is necessary to create a sustainable agriculture and food supply to avert the potential of starvation as the next crisis. Our diligence has determined that the necessary tool to influence and expedite the work to be done can be the little known document Hawaii signed for Hawaiian Homelands known as a Memorandum of Understanding. The provisions of this document help to expedite the process of developing a housing solution for Native Hawaiians. Placing the Agrivillage under the same Memorandum of Understanding and Agreement can now avert food shortages and serve as Global Mana's solution to expedite the Agrivillage and prevent starvation of Hawaiians and residents should an unforeseen disruption similar to COVID, stop global shipping flights and the supply chain. It's the chicken before the egg dilemma, where the Memorandum of Understanding instrument for housing is of importance, yet so is food supply, water and waste management. After all, no point in signing the document for housing should an unforeseen event trigger food shortages and starvation.

Global Mana Development has a strategy that can inject billions of dollars into Hawaii. Global Mana says, "The billions of dollars injected into the economy through the out-of-the-box solution, can create fiscal buoyancy for Hawaii, and also most importantly to Global Mana, also honor the legacy of Hawaiians. When Global Mana Development leads the vision, our corporate culture and mana flows, there is no hierarchical structure. Everyone is invited to the table. At the table we start with a blank piece of paper, we recognize equal sovereignty, and we act as one in the flow - the goal is to clap hands as one. Development can tend to be self centered. Global Mana is collaborative and Mana focused, the opposite of tradition. We find solutions and focus on community, honoring the land and recognizing that mana exists in everything, including Big Islands Papa Ikou Agrivillage.
