Hoʻa Oʻahu is a student-led media organization managed by the Journalism seniors at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, in the School of Communications, under the advising of Dr. Ann Auman.

​

It was created in the Fall of 2015 and has continued since, under the direction of each new cohort.

 

The meaning behind the name of our organization:

Hoʻa is the Hawaiian word for "ignite." Our motto is "igniting our voices," and our mission is to prompt meaningful discussions about current events relevant to young adults in Hawaiʻi.
