There is something powerful in this conversation with Chris Tuuga-Stevenson. He doesn’t just talk about schooling, he talks about belonging, truth, culture and the invisible weight of histories unspoken. For many Pasifika young people, mainstream schooling can feel disconnected, like you step into a space where your past, your language, your identity doesn’t quite fit. Chris reaches into that gap.
He speaks about re-imagining education so that it honours who students are, not just as learners, but as people with deep roots.
