In the second decade of the 21st century, 244 million folk are international migrants, or 3.3 percent of the world&#8217;s population.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In a world on the move, <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span> is an extremely important and instructive case for any understanding of the great global migrations in the 21st century. At over 17 percent, the percentage of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8217;s foreign-born immigrant population is significantly higher than the <abbr>U.S.<\/abbr> total (13 percent). Our country&#8217;s paradigmatic first (and only always) &lsquo;minority-majority&rsquo; state, <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8217;s immigrant population grew at a particularly fast rate in recent times (between 1990 and 2000 <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8217;s immigrant population grew by 30 percent).  How <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span> manages the transition of its littlest new Hawaiians&#8212;the children of immigrants in schools&#8212;will be a defining new chapter in the unfolding Hawaiian saga. It has significant implications for the well-being of the children, for <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span>&#8217;s future and could be a model for the entire nation.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/coe.hawaii.edu\/about\/events\/2015\/12\/education-age-mass-migration-a-lecture-marcelo-suarez-orozco\">College of Education&#8217;s website<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8212;By Jennifer Parks<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marcelo M.
