KAITIAKITANGA
Marae Retreat , Te Whaiti
12.00 am 7th - 1.00pm 9th July
Theme: This will be a relaxing weekend break for Hunter in the grandeur of the Whirinaki Rainforest, where we reflect on some of the organic approaches to leadership it illustrates for us.
We thank Ngati Whare for hosting this and generously inviting selected guests from other similar communities around New Zealand to share this informal weekend with Hunter. Other attendees include people from the US, Finland Japan and others from Aotearoa.
This will be a time to quietly reflect on the concepts and responsibilities of kaitiakitanga; to see that it involves more than just caring for the physical environment. Attendees will share how it embraces their own activity in the areas of the environment, education, community, culture, health, the arts and enterprise. (Kaitiakitanga encapsulates the whole of Quadruple Bottom Line thinking and more)
