Doug  Herman combines his backgrounds in Comparative Religion and Cultural Geography to explore Indigenous knowledge and what it teaches humanity about how to live on planet Earth. He created Pacific Worlds, a web-based indigenous-geography project for the American Pacific. In 2013 Doug built his own outrigger sailing canoe. He has sailed short trips on two Hawaiian voyaging canoes, Hokule'a and Hikianalia, and publishes and lectures on traditional Oceanic navigation and canoe-building.
