Host Organisation

Ngāti Manuhiri Settlement Trust, Mana Āniwaniwa, Te Waka Angamua

Outline

Uhi Tai will invite indigenous relatives into a conversation held and facilitated by Ngāti Manuhiri Settlement Trust, a Māori tribe from the eastern coast north of Auckland. Uhi Tai, referring to the ever changing ebbs and tides, will focus on the unique and shared challenges, solutions, and ways in which we as Māori are fighting against Climate Colonialism for future generations to come. Led by youth from the Ngāti Manuhiri Settlement Trust, we will connect as relatives from across the globe, grounded in our values of manaakitanga (generosity and hospitality) and kaitiakitanga (guardianship).
