Governance entities In the context in which I work, we have a range of governance entities, from trusts to incorporations, but no matter what the governance structure is - whether it is an ahu whenuatrust, a whānautrust, a whenua tōpū trust, a pūtea trust, a kaitiakitrust, or an incorporation - key governance skills and capabilities are required.
Use this form to add, reduce, replace or (in exceptional circumstances) remove trustees of a WhānauTrust, KaitiakiTrust,
Ahu WhenuaTrust, Whenua Tōpū Trust, Pūtea Trust or Māori Reservation.

Search by landowner
You can search for whenua that you have an interest in to learn more about the whakapapa of the whenua and the whānau.
Whenua tōpū trusts, again a land management trust, which provide for iwi or hapū based
trusts designed to facilitate the use and administration of the land on behalf of a wider class
of owner, normally a whānau, hapū or iwi grouping.
