Change in Tokelau

In Tokelau in a Fono meetings women were´t allowed to be present at the meetings but then a change happen and they let women attend the Fono meetings, Fono meetings are council meetings for them to make choices for their island. How does it affect the island? It makes their island become a better place by them making choices for their island.  And it gives the ladies point of view too. And for men it means they can share the responsibilities. My perspective is that it's good that they let women attend the Fono because women can now know what is happening with their island instead of just men knowing things.

Tokelau

In class today we watched a video 'Our small world Tokelau' one lady that was from Tokelau migrated from New Zealand back home because she found it hard to settle in New Zealand as she was trying her best to get a better education but as she left she didn't have any second thoughts on staying she went on the boat and came straight home. A challenge that their facing is the population it's decreasing because they all migrating to other islands to get a better education.
