In this episode of the Ka Pewa Podcast, we sit down with Trey Gordner, Policy Researcher and Data Scientist at UHERO, to explore the economic impacts of the Maui wildfires and what it will take for the community to recover and rebuild. Trey shares key findings from UHERO’s Maui Recovery Report, including insights on housing vulnerabilities, job displacement, and the deeper systemic challenges that existed before the disaster. Together, we talk about the policies, investments, and data-driven solutions that can help shape a more resilient and affordable future for Maui County.
