Founded in 2015 by Arieta Tegeilolo Talanoa Tora Rika, Talanoa is a digital storytelling platform for Oceanic voices.
A place where you can find authentic Oceanic voices sharing real stories and experiences in the hope of inspiring, encouraging, and informing people in our communities and in our world.
TRANSCENDING BORDERS
Since launching, Talanoa has:
Published over 300+ stories, interviews, and essays by Pacific creatives
Built a community of 4,000+ followers on Instagram, 10,000+ on Facebook
Collaborated with artists, writers, and storytellers across Oceania and beyond
Delivered workshops and events centring Indigenous Pacific digital storytelling
Our platform is resting while we prepare for its next evolution.
We're currently seeking funding and partnerships to relaunch Talanoa in a way that reflects the scale of our vision and the care our stories deserve.
