Unlocking the Potential of Maori Land
Event Information
About this event
“Whatungarongaro te tangata, toitū te whenua” People come and go, but the land endures
Unlocking the potential of Māori land requires and understanding of key components of Māori knowledge/values, assets/taonga, Māori governance and decision-making. Māori have a significant asset base primarily in land based industries and agribusiness and are increasingly exploring private and crown partnerships to generate commercial and social returns.
Join us as we hear from Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research on the issues we face in developing future land use whilst acknowledge these components to ensure Māori land owners, trustees and whānau have greater decision-making powers and better support for the occupation, development, and utilisation of that land for the benefit of its owners and descendants.
The B.linc VIBE event series is an opportunity to hear from one of the wider Lincoln precinct companies about their business and to touch base, reconnect and build connections across the precinct.
