Formed at a meeting of the Iwi Chairs' Forum at Haruru in February 2010, Matike Mai Aotearoa, the Independent Working Group on Constitutional Transformation was chaired by Margaret Mutu and convened by Moana Jackson. The process to develop recommendations for constitutional change involved conversations between Māori of all ages across the country from 2012 to 2015. The Report of Matike Mai Aotearoa was published in 2016.
These sessions, intended for Pākehā / Tauiwi, will use an inquiry/reflective approach, creating a supportive space for up to 12 people to surface what resonates and sparks curiosity, and to explore what the transformation Matike Mai proposes might mean for us, individually and collectively.
Participants commit to meeting for five sessions of 90 minutes each fortnight. The initial session provides an extra half hour for whakawhangaunatanga and all sessions utilise grounding techniques and contemporary poetry to support learning.
