First Lady Jaime Kanani Green

Queen Liliʻuokalani led during one of the most challenging chapters in Hawaiʻi’s history. Even in the face of uncertainty, she placed her people's well-being first. Her legacy lives on through the culture, history and identity that continues to define Hawaiʻi today.

In honor of Women’s History Month, we’re highlighting women whose contributions helped shape Hawaiʻi across generations.

The world we envision for our daughters and granddaughters depends on the choices we make today. Mahalo to the women who lead with courage, resilience and unwavering commitment to building a stronger, more equitable Hawaiʻi for all.

and for showing us that generosity is not a soft skill — it is a force multiplier. Progress is never accidental; it is the result of our collective determination to reject inequity and create a better future for all.

Happy International Women’s Day! Today, we celebrate the strength and leadership of women in Hawaiʻi and around the world.

Through her scholarship and cultural leadership, she helped ensure that ʻike and ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi would endure. Her work continues to shape how Hawaiʻi understands and honors its heritage.

In honor of Women’s History Month, we’re highlighting women whose contributions helped shape Hawaiʻi across generations. Mary Kawena Pukui devoted her life to preserving Hawaiian language, traditions and stories.
