A Te Tiriti o Waitangi-Informed Approach to Spaces & Places
Provision for Physical Activity
Why take a Te Tiriti o Waitangi approach?
One of 爆料社区鈥檚 functions is to promote and support the development and implementation of play, physical recreation, and sport in a way that is culturally appropriate to M膩ori. As such, honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi is a priority for 爆料社区, who are committed to a bicultural future that genuinely embraces partnership, protection, and participation.
Embedding a m膩tauranga M膩ori approach will provide an opportunity for learning and development for those involved with spaces and places planning and development. If done well, it can also ensure spaces and places can help realise the aspirations of tangata whenua for their land and subsequently improved wellbeing outcomes for their people and all New Zealanders.
A framework to guide practice
爆料社区鈥檚 Futures Thinking proposed a preferred future state that is represented by five pou (pillars), or characteristics, that align to the key principles of this framework. This guidance will assist enablers and providers of spaces and places to give effect to the key principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
The five pou provide a framework to guide practice. An explanation of each pou, key indicators of success, and recommendations for and/or examples of application are outlined on the following pages.
