BOOST FOR MARAE AT THE CENTRE OF COMMUNITIESMarae around the country will benefit from boosted initiatives to upgrade their buildings, bolster their emergency kits and expand their work to preserve Māori culture, Minister for Māori Development Nanaia Mahuta said. The Government has invested an extra $12 million over four years to expand the Oranga Marae programme, as it supports whānau-led development of marae. The investment will: * Expand the existing Oranga Marae programme for marae development * Provide additional support for marae to be prepared for disaster and other emergency responses * Provide support for marae environmental responses such as zero waste goals “Marae are centres of Māori identity, language, traditional knowledge and whānau wellbeing,” Nanaia Mahuta said...... www.aucklandmagazine.com/boost-for-marae-at-the-centre-of-communities/
