    He āta mātai, he rangahau i te oranga o te waitai i tētahi rohe o te Tairāwhiti kia mōhiotia ai he wai ora rānei, he tai ora rānei, he mate rānei tēnei momo taiao. Hei reira anō ka whakamōhiotia atu ki ngā mana tiaki o taua rohe, ka whakariterite tikanga hoki hei tiaki i te tai. Ko te rohe e tohua ana ko te ākau o Tokomaru i te raki ki Whāngārā i te tonga. Ko te rohe tēnei o ngā karangatanga hapū o Ngāti Porou, o Te Aitanga a Hauiti, o Ngāti Konohi, o Ngāti Ira anō hoki.

Nō te wā i tuhituhia e Apirana Ngata tana tuhinga e kīia nei ko ‘Raurunui a Toi Lectures’ (Ngata A.T., 1944) ka whakawhāiti ia i ngā kōrero me ngā whakapapa o te hītori o te Tairāwhiti me tana kī kāore anō i oti i a ia, tērā ētahi kōrero nui hei whakaoti ā te wā. Kāti ko tētahi o aua kōrero nui, mō Ngāti Ira, arā, mō ngā uri o Irakaipūtahi, he iwi nui i te Tairāwhiti i tōna wā. Nā reira e manako nui ana kia whāia tēnei kaupapa kia tutuki.

    Persisting Inequalities and the Potential for Intervention through “New” Governance Models

    What is the potential for new governing structures to intervene in persisting social, cultural, political and economic inequalities that disproportionately accrue to Māori?

    The multiple accountabilities of Māori leaders to whānau and community members, beneficiaries and external stakeholders make Māori governance challenges unique. Māori entities are collective, ancestry based and do not have easy exit mechanisms for owners and so Māori governance poses complex challenges.

    Ngā Moemoea ō Ᾱpōpō: Empowering Taiohi Māori Leaders for the Future

    E kore e ngaro nga tapuwae i nga wa o mua,
    He arahina ke tatou ki te huarahi nei,
    Me hangaia e tatou e tatou ano

    We can never erase the footprints of our past,
    They lead us to the paths of the future
    We carve for ourselves.

    In the 21st century, indigenous youth face an uncertain and challenging future. In the years ahead they will need to deal with a daunting range of issues, some of potentially unprecedented scale and scope.
