Resources

  • He Kōrero podcast channel – Community Research Te Tiriti Kōrero podcast series. We launched this on Waitangi Day 2022 to raise the mana of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, the founding document of Aotearoa-New Zealand. This collection of knowledge, lived-experience and research highlights Kaupapa Māori practitioners.
  • Te Ao with Moana: Māori Television Te Tiriti Discussion from 2022 on Facebook Live – Many voices, one kaupapa: Te Tiriti. So how do we get some action, put the magic in the mix, go beyond the rhetoric, get all onboard and keep our energy up?
  • Imagining Decolonisation – A book that seeks to demystify decolonisation using illuminating, real-life examples. By exploring the impact of colonisation on Māori and non-Māori alike, Imagining Decolonisation presents a transformative vision of a country that is fairer for all.
  • Te Tiriti o Waitangi – School Journal Story Library graphic novel provides a fresh approach to the story of Te Tiriti o Waitangi. It covers a wide time-span, from the arrival of Polynesian explorers to the signing of Te Tiriti, to the New Zealand Wars, and through to the modern-day Treaty settlement process. A special emphasis is put on unpacking the two versions of Te Tiriti and exploring their ongoing significance.
