Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust
We have started working with Te Hiku Iwi
Development Trust, formed by Ngāi Takoto, Te
Apōuri, and Te Rarawa, on developing a joint
action plan.
Our key purpose is to promote the retention of Māori land in Māori hands, and to support landowners to use, occupy and develop their whenua for the benefit of all landowners, and their whānau and hapū.
Today, many Māori landowners continue to act as collective kaitiaki of their whenua, to honour and protect their land as taonga-tuku-iho. Our role as Te Kooti Whenua Māori is to facilitate and promote the retention and use of Māori land, and support whānau to occupy, develop and use their whenua.
As the oldest court in Aotearoa New Zealand, the Māori Land Court has a complex history and has been affected by many shifts in legislation and policy.
Disputes can delay whānau connecting to and using whenua. Whānau who agree to enter mediation to resolve disputes can do so out of court, pay no filing fee and can practice the tikanga of your whānau and hapū in that mediation.
