Te Mātāwai

He rautaki reo Māori hou Te Maihi Māori i whakawhanakehia e ngā iwi, e te Māori, e te hapori reo Māori me te hunga whai wāhi ki te reo, mā rātou anō.  Ko tā Te Mātāwai he ārahi i te whakatinanatanga o te Maihi Māori, he mahi ngātahi ki te iwi, ki te Māori, ki ngā hapori Māori, ki te hunga whai wāhi ake ki te reo mō ngā kaupapa haumi me ngā kaupapa rangahau.

I te noho tahi mai ki te whare kotahi, e tuia ana ngā iwi/Māori me te Karauna i runga i te kaupapa kotahi, ko te whakarauora i te reo Māori tērā.

The Maihi Māori is a new Māori language strategy developed by and for iwi, Māori and Māori language communities/stakeholders. Te Mātāwai will lead the implementation of the Maihi Māori, working closely with iwi, Māori, and Māori language communities/stakeholders on a range of investment and research initiatives.

Being together in the same whare (house), both iwi Māori and the Crown are drawn together by a shared sense of purpose for the revitalisation of the Māori language.

 

“Playing a role in the revitalisation of Te Reo Māori is very rewarding. Not only have I had the opportunity to support those in the community but i have also been able to implement my own strategy to revitalise te reo māori in my home.”

Nate Brabender, Team Leader | Investments

 

 

 

“Being part of Te Mātāwai allows me to support people in rural and urban settings who toil for the Māori language. After all, our language survives because of the commitment and advocacy from the people.”

Tira Puketapu, Advisor | Communications

 

 

Great opportunities to implement the Maihi Māori with Te Mātāwai are presented below.
