This Waitangi Day, celebrate Te Tiriti o Waitangi by choosing Māori-made. We've curated a special selection of products from pakihi Māori that reflect our culture, history, and identity. Whether it's taonga, kai, or kaupapa-driven creations, each item carries the mana of our people and the stories of our tīpuna. Support Māori businesses, uplift our economy, and honour Te Tiriti in a meaningful way.
There is always more to learn about Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the way it exists in our lives. Together for Te Tiriti has gathered a handful of helpful resources that help you learn more about Te Tiriti. From understanding the Principles of Te Tiriti to the potential for constitutional transformation – these resources are merely an introduction to the wealth of good information that exists.
You might even like to go on a Together for Te Tiriti scavenger hunt in your neighbourhood and count how many Together for Te Tiriti placards you can find.
