Ka Ururoa, Supporting Ngāti Toa Whānau on the Path to Home Ownership
For many whānau, owning a home can feel out of reach. Ka Uruora is an iwi-led programme designed to help change that by supporting Ngāti Toa whānau with the knowledge, skills and confidence to strengthen their financial wellbeing and, ultimately, achieve home ownership.

Whakamomori - A kaupapa grounded in mātauranga and manaaki
A community kaupapa led by Ora Toa Mauriora clinical psychologists Dr. Bailey Rose (Ngāti Maniapoto) and Dr. Carrie Clifford (Waitaha, Kāti Māmoe, Kāi Tahu) is exploring traditional and lived experience perspectives of whakamomori to shape more culturally and clinically aligned responses to suicide, grief, loss, and distress.
There is an open invitation for those willing to share their experiences. Your kōrero can help shape resources and practises that are grounded in local context and facilitate improved community responses and better services for whānau.

Destiny Stuart Awarded Ngāti Toa Iwi Scholarship
Destiny Stuart (Ngāti Toa Rangatira) has been awarded the Ngāti Toa Scholarship at the Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology (NMIT), recognising her commitment to education, te reo Māori, and reconnecting with her whakapapa. Currently completing a Bachelor of Teaching through the University of Canterbury, Destiny was inspired to enrol in NMIT's Level 1 New Zealand Certificate in Te Reo Māori following a Ngāti Toa wānanga at Whakatū Marae earlier this year.
As a single mother balancing study and whānau commitments, Destiny hopes to help restore te reo Māori within her own whānau and ultimately teach in a Māori-medium or bilingual setting. The scholarship will support her ongoing studies as she works towards fluency in te reo Māori and prepares for a teaching opportunity in Japan later this year.
