We are the Whānau Ora commissioning agency for Te Waipounamu / the South Island of New Zealand. We work on behalf of the nine iwi of Te Waipounamu to respond to whānau innovation, to foster and grow inspirational ideas that are whānau-centered, intergenerational, locally driven, and provide direct impact for whānau. We work alongside whānau to create social change from the grass-roots level to enable independent transformational change.
