PANEL: Kaitiakitanga o te Moana

Ko Au Te Moana, Ko Te Moana Ko Au (I am the ocean, the ocean is me)

Today is World Ocean Day! For our special Monday instalment of Changing Tides: Tai Tōrua, we will bring together indigenous leaders from Aotearoa and around the world to share their perspectives on ocean conservation.

This will be structured as another panel session – you will once again have an opportunity to take part in this kōrero by asking questions, make your own professional or personal connections – or simply listen in to learn more about indigenous methods of caring for our ocean.
