Critical Pacific Islands Studies Collective 

The Critical Pacific Islands Studies Collective (CPISC) at UC Berkeley is an interdisciplinary initiative committed to supporting and uplifting Pacific Islander voices and ways of knowing. We focus on issues like U.S. imperialism, settler colonialism, and environmental justice in the Pacific and throughout the diaspora. Through learning, teaching, organizing, and building community, we aim to create safe space for deeper connection, honest conversation, and lived experiences.
