Ki te Hoe supporting Māori aspirations

Ki te Hoe – supporting Māori aspirations

Ki te Hoe literally means to the paddle, and in this context means Let’s get going in this waka together!

Ki te Hoe is a partnership between Philanthropy New Zealand | Tōpūtanga Tuku Aroha o Aotearoa, and Tūmanako Consultants Haimona Waititi and Kate Frykberg. The partnership aims to build funder capacity to support Māori aspirations in a mana-enhancing way. The outcome of this is that philanthropy plays a growing part in nation-building that honours Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

The partnership acknowledges Marcus Akuhata-Brown for his early input into this project.

 
We’re planning a hui with our team to go through each step of this framework and check where we are at on each.

It’s clear, helpful, and I like the warning about complacency.

I think this is an excellent piece of work. I really like the voyage concept. Whether funder or funded, we’re all at some point on this voyage and there is some really practical stuff in there.
