Who they are
The Nenema are an Indigenous Kanak people originally from the far north of Grande Terre and neighboring islands in New Caledonia. Deeply connected to the ocean and their ancestral land, they keep their community traditions alive and communicate in the Nelemwa-Nixumwak language, preserving a distinctive cultural identity amid the waters of the Pacific.
