The Maori King Endorses Joint Forces with Humanitarian Organisations to Save The Oceans

Torbjörn Jörgensen • July 8, 2022

The Maori King Endorses Joint Forces with Humanitarian Organisations to Save The Oceans - The Maori King Endorses Joint Forces With ‘Humanitarian Trade & Development’ And ‘Adventure of Humanity’ Founded in 1999 by Michael Jackson in support of Nelson Mandela’s Children Fund. 


The ‘Adventure of Humanity’ has the full support of the Royal House of Mandela and the Family of Michael Jackson, who have given their full Support to the Pacific Ocean Nations Call to Heal the World. 



Adventure of Humanity President Richard Nilsson and Torbjorn Jorgensen from Humanitarian Trade & Development, confirmed support for Guardians of the Pacific in hosting an A list of VIP attendees at his Cannes Villa-Oxygene to Launch ‘Guardians of the Pacific – Moana Pasifika‘. 


Richard Nilsson says “We are here to announce a collaboration around the preservation of the Pacific Ocean (Te Moana nui a Kiwa ) starting today with the goal to educate, exhibit and tell the stories of the ancestors of the Pacific Ocean and their journey, to create awareness and find solutions for sustainability against the many problems we are facing across the Pacific Ocean today, much needed work to be done for our future generations“.


”Moana Pasifika Kaitiaki” or Guardians of the Pacific has the goal of bringing about a collective movement of Indigenous Pacific tribes. The mission is to protect the oceans in the face of our planet's most critical issues of climate change and ocean degradation. One of the ways is through a touring and immersive project called the Moana Pasifika International Exhibition which presents a cultural and enlightening story of the Pacific Ocean to the world. 



I am the Ocean, the Ocean is me.

The Guardians of the Pacific tells the Indigenous story of the People, the Islands, and the ocean animals in a call for preservation. It allows the Pacific People’s voices to be heard as a united voice in the global climate change conversation, especially concerning the degraded state of the Pacific Ocean. Today Pacific Peoples are the most affected by climate change as they lose their homes, their freshwater, their food, their land, their culture, their heritage, and their lives. The Pacific Nations are developing and isolated, with limited resources to adapt and prevent environmental threats brought on by greenhouse gas emissions, rising temperatures, and Ocean degradation. Yet only 0.03 percent of greenhouse gas is emitted from the entire Pacific region. 



Together we stand

To help spread the call-to-action throughout the world, Guardians of the Pacific met other organisations and decided to accept joint forces with two organisations sharing the same concern - Humanitarian Trade & Development and Adventure of Humanity. The Maori King of Aotearoa New Zealand - Kiingi Tuheitia Pootatau Te Wherowhero VII, endorsed the collaboration and the parties decided to seal the deal at a ceremony held at Villa-Oxygene, a world-class VIP Event celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the Film Festival in Cannes, France.



The Taonga and the announcement

On the night of May 22, 2022, the organisations Humanitarian Trade & Development, represented by Torbjorn Jorgensen and Andreas Söbbing, Adventure of Humanity, represented by Richard Nilsson, and celebrity actress and singer Iulia Vântur from India received The Taonga (the precious gift). It is a Mother of Pearl Shell retrieved from Manahiki Island in the Cook Islands with an ocean depth of 4.000 meters. The four shells are inscribed with the Manawa of the Maori King (The Kings Seal) and have carved inscriptions symbolising the journey we are on. The inscription reads: ”Ruia te Kakano, Kia Puawai Tatou. Sow the Seeds of Unity so we can Blossom Together.” It’s the first time in history and the Taonga signifies a commitment as Protectors and Guardians of the Pacific Ocean.




The work ahead and ambassadorship


- We are delighted to have the full support of Kiingi Tuheitia in this important work as we begin to bring all of the Pacific People's voices on this journey to showcase our needs to the world. Our King is very passionate about the Ocean's condition and the issues impacting on all of our Pacific Peoples that are spread across the ocean our ancestors travelled, says Greg Miller.


Greg Miller, as the Representative of Kiingi Tuheitia Pootatau Te Wherowhero VII, the Maori King of Aotearoa New Zealand, and his wife Sela Miller, a member of the Makea Royal Family and descendant of the last Cook Islands King Makea Pori Te Pou solemnly delivered the gifts. In turn, the two organisations honoured Greg, Sela and Iulia as special Ambassadors.


"Humanitarian Trade and Development" believes in solution-driven initiatives to make the world a better place. They pay special attention to countries with the greatest needs, helping them build resilience, promote equality and ensure prosperity for all.


The Adventure of Humanity Project continues to carry the message from the two legends, Michael Jackson and Nelson Mandela, and continue to spread Love, Peace, Unity, Equality, Friendship, and Happiness among all humankind. Today also with support from the family of Tara Gandhi, the Granddaughter of Mahatma Gandhi, and His Holiness the Dali Lama. The organisation is connecting world personalities who choose to lend their support to the Adventure of Humanity projects, to raise funds for global peace.



Iulia Vântur is a high profile celebrity. She was born and raised in Romania where she become a top TV host and a media celebrity. For a few years now, she lives in India where she became an actress and singer in Bollywood. She is a household name in these regions and a celebrated A-class celebrity.

We are helping funding several groups of suppliers of high-quality COVID-19 masks and PPE equipment to the urgency needed by governments and medical institutions around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the world in a way we did not believe was possible. Governments around the world have responded differently to tackle the pandemic and what it brings to economic instability as well as increasing numbers of deaths. No matter the approach of your government or how they tackle the problem we believe there should at lest be simple protection available for everyone who wants to use it. We also believe all medical workers should have access to proper protection. Humanitarian Development and Trade support organisations and those working in finding supplies and solutions to the high demand for protective equipment and masks. We cannot solve the COVID-19 pandemic, but we can surely assist. Our focus is high volumes of quality protection supplies.

With the new quantum technology, Q-Life™ is taking on cleaning up rivers in South East Asia from pollution and toxic waste. We need to fight what we can to protect our environment, whereas the rivers are essential life nerves of the civilisations. Rivers around the world have suffered from simple waste pollution and industrial or agricultural chemicals for decades. To clean the rivers from waste is a problem that may be solved by pure manpower. However toxic waste and chemicals are a different problem that needs another solution. We are now supporting a technology that provides solutions. A few countries are using this quantum technology, and we are looking forward to see verified results applied around the globe.

The Bolivar project is a water reuse project. The project uses treated water from Bolivar Water treatment Facilities in Northwest Adelaide, South Australia. It aims to grow intensively farmed fresh fruit and vegetables under protected cropping systems at Bolivar. But also on one off Australia's premier horticultural regions, the Northern Adelaine plains. Sustainable sources supply the energy, such as thermal to heat systems, photovolatic panels, hydrogens methanation, and biomass. The project is sustainable, has zero carbon footprint, and employs the latest in high-tech greenhouse technology, using Australian greenwhousecladding polymers, plants, and bioscience resources. It's constructed over a 7 to 10 year period. The project will ultimately comprise 200 ha of sophisticated high technology greenhouses and 500 ha of broadacre field crops in the region. The project will create 2,200 new full-time jobs and approximately 2,200 indirect jobs. The construction period establishes additional 350 jobs. The project intends to primarily distribute vegetables to Asia, South East Asia and the Middle East markets. Humanitarian Development & Trade will provide funding for this project.

Food Security project in South East Asia. A large food security project help South East Asian territories with sustainable food production and distribution is a project who will benefit from Humanitarian Development & Trade. As world leaders grapple with COVID-19, global financial crisis, instability, and mass migration, an underlying more devastating situation is at hand - Global Food Security. The most acute food shortage in more than 50 years has, according to the World Bank, already left 821 million people "food insecure". Poor access to food, more particularly healthy food, contributes to undernutrition as well as diabetes and obesity. It is the real Food Security crisis, and it affects nearly 30% of the world's current population. The global community needs to acknowledge two main things. First, growth in agricultural productivity is the only way to ensure that people have access to affordable healthy food. Second, achieving this is a long-term effort. Humanitarian Development & Trade has approved the first access to funding. We are looking forward to updating you more about this project over time.
