Many landowner journeys begin when a whānau member passes away and their land interests or shares in an incorporation are transferred to their whānau members.
There are many ways Māori connect with and utilise whenua, depending on the economic, social, and cultural aspirations of the whānau for the whenua. The Māori Land Court, alongside our partner agencies, are here to support you and your whānau throughout your whenua journey.

Proceedings on foot or not
As noted above, one of the benefits of the proposed mediation process is that mediation is
not only available where there are proceedings on foot, but also where there are no formal
proceedings or applications before the Court. A simple application by the Registrar and the
consent of the parties to the dispute is all that is required.
