Pono Pono: State of Correctness Pledge
Pono is a beautiful word with a multi-layered meaning and great importance for people lucky enough to visit Hawai‘i. When something—a place, an event, a person’s attitude or a way of doing things—is pono, it is in a state of correctness. It is respectful, safe, accurate and responsible. The Pono Pledge, a creative initiative by the Island of Hawai‘i Visitors Bureau (IHVB) and Hawai‘i County, encourages safe, responsible and respectful tourism.
