Abstract | COVID-19 has had a major impact on collectivist cultures and their means of social interaction and maintaining contact with those in their wider community. This has particularly been the case for Pacific peoples living in diaspora, with COVID-19 preventing travel home and social distancing and forced lockdowns restricting the ability to gather. This has also impacted "va," the Pacific concept of 'relational space' critical to connectivity and maintaining relationships. This paper explains the creation of virtual "faikava"; online meeting environments in which Pacific kava users meet, maintain "va," connect with those at home and in the wider diasporic community and learn, while consuming their traditional beverage kava.
