WAKA HUIA - NGĀ WHENUA RĀHUI

I tīmata mai a Ngā Whenua Rāhui i ngā tau waru tekau, he kaupapa i puea mai i te whakaaro o tētahi iwi ki te hoko ō rātou whenua hei utu i ngā rēti. Nā aua taumahatanga ka whakaritea he pūtea tautoko ki a Ngāi Māori ki te utu i ngā rēti, ki te tiaki i o rātou ngahere taketake, ki te patu i ngā kīrearea, me te mau hoki ki ngā mauri, hītori, mātauranga Māori hoki.
Ngā Whenua Rāhui came about in the 1980s when Māori in Waikare in the north looked to sell their lands to pay the rates. That struggle saw the establishment of Ngā Whenua Rāhui in 1991, a contestable fund to support Māori landowners to protect their native forests through pest eradication and the preservation of the mauri, history and mātauranga Māori.
