He Oranga Poutama Fund
He Oranga Poutama is a collaborative initiative between Te Pae Oranga o Ruahine o Tararua Iwi Māori Partnership Board (Te Pae Oranga), Sport Manawatū Trust and Sport New Zealand - Ihi Aotearoa, that supports Māori wellbeing by improving participation and growing leadership through physical activity that strongly supports Māori ways of being and knowing.
We want whānau Māori to have the opportunity to get active, learn new skills, connect to Te Ao Māori and work towards a new goal or achievement through the activities they are participating in.
He Oranga Poutama emphasises activities that are:
BY Māori – governed, managed and delivered by Māori
FOR Māori – designed for iwi, hapū, whānau Māori
WITH Māori – using Māori language and custom
THROUGH Māori – utilising customary activities handed down
IN/ON Māori spaces – e.g. marae, maunga, awa
The collaboration is founded on the principle of empowering Māori voices in decision-making for improving physical activation opportunities within Māori communities.
