Transmission of mātauranga Māori: Customary forms of taonga tuku iho from a Ngāti Tarawhai and Ngāti Pikiao uri perspective

This publication, written by Raimona Inia (Ngāti Tarawhai, Ngāti Pikiao, Ngāti Tūwharetoa), focuses on aspects pertaining to the transmission of knowledge from a Ngāti Tarawhai perspective. It aligns with both the Whakarauora and Whakamanu Research Projects of Te Atawhai o Te Ao. Whakarauora promotes the restoration of traditional knowledge, while Whakamanu seeks to preserve and protect taonga belonging to whānau, hapū and marae. We believe that the recovery and reinstitution of traditional knowledges, and the transmission of those knowledges in ways that are meaningful to whānau, hapū and iwi, are critical to healing from intergenerational trauma.
