Our Reform Agenda
Reform Agenda
The Chuuk Reform Movement recognizes the multitude and complexity of problems facing Chuuk all of which require a consistent agenda of reform on many fronts. We dare to begin that process by addressing some basic areas of reform in Chuuk.

It is only through open and respectful dialogue between practitioners and theorists, voters and elected officials, native Chuukese and our global allies can a consensus for an agenda-setting reform program emerge.
