The Pacific Islands
The Pacific Islands
The Pacific Islands is divided by the equator, the two halves being the North Pacific (Hawaii and the tiny Micronesian Islands including Guam, Palau and the Marshall Islands), and the South Pacific (including New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and the Cook Island) with Kiribati straddling the equator. The North Pacific Islands, being north of the equator, has its summer between May and September whilst the South Pacific Islands has its summer between November and April when temperatures and humidity are higher resulting in more frequent and often heavy rainfall, except of course, for New Zealand, which is as too far south to be effected by intense heat.
This map of the Pacific Ocean with an emphasis on the main tourist destinations gives an insight into why the region is considered by many to be paradise - remote and isolated islands we know little about. The three cultural divisions in the Pacific are Melanesia, Polynesia and Micronesia.

84. The Lutheran | April 1997 | Looking For Answers In The South Pacific
I'm convinced, despite protestations about the unchangeable supremacy of culturein tuvalu, that this is the last generation of men to monopolize the freedom

MEN AND WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP
Looking for answers in the South Pacific
Does cultural sensitivity take precedence over gender sensitivity?
BY ERICH WEINGARTNER I am sitting on a handwoven straw mat in a maneaba, the traditional sacred meeting house common in this part of the South Pacific. Having spread a long tablecloth on the floor, the women of the parish are loading it to the edge with samples of their culinary artistry. All those enjoying the meal with me are men from this island of Tuvalu. When the men have eaten, they retreat, leaving the women to clear away the remnants. In a traditional sacred meeting house on the Tuvalu islands in the South Pacific, men eat food prepared and served by the women, most of whom then leave. Two or three women stay close enough to fan the flies from the food. When the men finish, the women and children eat the leftovers. The men say this separation isn't their decision but is rather ancient tradition. Now it's time to share stories, I'm told. Anyone may speak. Any of the men, that is. The women are busy eating the leftovers with their children outside the area where we're seated. Parish leaders thank me for my visit and thank the World Council of Churches , which I'm representing. They express interest in the theme of my visit: the Ecumenical Decade of Churches in Solidarity with Women.
