Traditional warning signs of cyclones on remote islands in Fiji and Tonga
Traditional knowledge of disasters has been found to save lives. On remote islands wheretelecommunications to the mainland are unreliable, unless there are always workingbatteries in the radio, signs from the environment may be the only warning of an oncomingcyclone.

We suggest that a pedagogy of compassion may offer potential…
