ItemTerevaka Archaeological Outreach (TAO) 2015 field report: Archaeology, conservation, and toponymy( 2015-10-01)Terevaka Archaeological Outreach (TAO) is a volunteer program that has provided educational opportunities for youths local to the Rapa Nui community since 2003. The long-term goals of TAO are: (1) to offer experiential learning opportunities specific to cultural and natural resources that surround the local community; (2) to promote awareness and expertise in conservation measures and sustainable development; and (3) to document and study both cultural and natural phenomena of the past today. TAO has now provided educational opportunities to approximately 115 local high school students. Our alumni have gained inspiration to complete university degrees in fields such as archaeology, conservation, history, and cultural anthropology. Several of these students now hold official positions in governmental, private, and educational organizations on the island that will be of critical importance in the island’s near and distant future
