Rangahau: Activating Mātauranga Māori, Science, & Innovation
Activating Mātauranga Māori through rangahau /research is one of our Five Key Pathways within our Te Taiao Strategy. In fact, you could say it is the most important as it underpins the success of each of the other pathways providing the knowledge and insights necessary to realise our aspirations for regeneration.
By elevating Indigenous Wisdom alongside contemporary science and innovation, we create a powerful, integrated approach that respects and revitalises indigenous wisdom while embracing cutting-edge practices. This blending of knowledge systems enables us to deepen our understanding of Te Taiao’s complex ecosystems, uncover new solutions, and strengthen our capacity as kaitiaki. Through research, we bring clarity to inter-connected relationships within kāinga, whenua, and culture, fueling informed, culturally-grounded action toward restoring the mana and mauri of all living things.
