Who they are
The Niueans are a Polynesian people originating from the South Pacific island of Niue, affectionately known as the Rock of Polynesia. With a rich communal heritage and a close connection to the sea, a large proportion of this population now lives in the diaspora, especially in New Zealand, striving to preserve their native language and ancestral customs amid the changes of contemporary urban life.
