The purpose of the ‘Ōlelo Hawai‘i Initiative is to provide an opportunity and space for UHM students, faculty, staff, and community members to learn and speak the Hawaiian language at a centralized location on the Mānoa Campus. On Dec 11, 2019, ASUH unanimously passed Senate Act 20-20 to appropriate funding for this initiative. On May 6, 2020, ASUH passed Senate Act 40-20 to continue the initiative until Spring 2021
