Community led investments and engagement
Te Mātāuru is responsible for the investment framework of Te Mātāwai, and building the capability and capacity in our community leadership model. These place an emphasis on language revitalisation in homes and communities, as highlighted through our focus areas – Tukuihotanga and Hononga Hapori Reo.
Te Mātāuru will continue its work to empower Pae Motuhake, Pou Reo and their Kāhui to support more whānau in their kāinga, hapori and iwi to be confident and capable everyday speakers of te reo Māori. Alongside direct investment, we intend to achieve this through providing accurate and timely information, intensive engagement, building and maintaining quality relationships, proactive decision-making, and deliberate planning, reporting, and monitoring.
Our Kāhui-based investment round takes place annually. Our Ānga Kāhui – the high-level rules established by the inaugural Board – provide the framework for respective Pae Motuhake to drive bespoke revitalisation for their particular people.
