Tika, Pono & Tīriti: Doing the mahi of reconciliation
Join us as we gather together at Papatūānuku Kōkiri marae to wānanga about some of the lived experiences and practical realities of reconciliation and what it can require of us, through the lenses of justice, truth-telling and treaty.

He aha te kaupapa o Ngā Wai Hōhonu?
“He wai hohōnu ngā kupu a te māngai o te tangata, he awa e rere ana te puna o te whakaaro nui” - Proverbs 18:4
We exist to facilitate opportunities for Māori to explore being authentically Māori and authentically Christian. We are the official Aotearoa entity in partnership with NAIITS: An Indigenous Learning Community (www.naiits.com), and desire to support tangata whenua and tangata tiriti to engage with formal theological, intercultural and community development education. We also co-create and facilitate a wider community of interest which focusses on ongoing theological learning through the creation of online and physical resources, hui, wānanga and community gatherings.
Nau piki mai nau kake mai!
PARTNERS
NAIITS, is one of the two divisions of Indigenous Pathways, a non-sectarian organization dedicated to encouraging the Indigenous community to develop and to articulate Indigenous perspectives on theology and practice. We encourage the development and implementation of Indigenous learning styles and world views through encouraging the development of a body of written work that addresses biblical, theological, and ethical issues from within Native North American and other Indigenous perspectives. We do so in concert with those of other ethnicities who would speak into this context. NAIITS currently has five degree program partnerships offering BA, MA and Ph.D programs.
