NATIONAL MĀORI LANGUAGE SUMMIT FOR YOUNG NEW ZEALANDERSThe first national Māori language summit for young New Zealanders from across Aotearoa will open on Wednesday in Manukau. “Like our ancestors, our goals for te reo are inter-generational. To revitalise our country’s first language, we need young New Zealanders to help make it happen,” said Māori Language Commissioner, Professor Rawinia Higgins. “Our audacious goal is to have 1 million speakers of te reo by 2040. This week is an important step towards that goal.” The strategy also aims by 2040, to have 85% of New Zealanders, or more, value te reo Māori as a key part of national identity and achieve 150,000 Māori aged 15 and over, using te reo Māori as much as English by 2040...... www.scoop.co.nz/stories/CU1912/S00026/national-maori-language-summit-for-young-new-zealanders.htm
