Our goal is to reconnect whānau back to their hapū so we can collectively work together learning and utilising the tools of our tupuna – rangatiratanga, whanaungatanga and manaakitanga as expressed in our own reo and tikanga. The reconnection of uri with hapū will help to determine our future.
Our future goals can only be shaped by learning and understanding our history. Understanding our primary relationships with our whānau, hapū, iwi, and He Whakaputanga. Followed by understanding our secondary relationships with the Crown, Te Tiriti and the Waitangi Tribunal processes.
These learnings will help us develop our own collectively determined structure and strategy that bests represents our goals for the future.
