After an independence struggle in the 1980s, the Noumea Accord was signed in 1998. But the issue of decolonisation of Kanaky is again coming to the fore in the Southern Pacific. Kanaky has been a colony of France since 1854, and while small, the islands are of great strategic importance to France’s imperialist and military ambitions. The Kanaks have never accepted colonialisation. If you’d like to learn more about the renewed push for Kanak independence, come to a public meeting in Melbourne Australia on the 10th of July to hear about the Kanaks’ renewed push for independence.
