This project aims to reconnect rangatai to te taiao through mana-enhancing and youth development practice, pūrakau, matauranga Māori, and traditional culture. The benefits and outcomes we seek to achieve include:
- Rangatahi will develop a strong sense of belonging and a positive identity
- Rangatahi will have mana taurite, access and open doors, have their voice heard and participate in power sharing.
- Rangatahi will have a sense of contributing to society, and the ability to have their opinions heard and valued.
