Exploring Mahi a Atua: a cultural strategy
Mahi a Atua is a powerful approach rooted in traditional wisdom, encouraging learning and instant feedback for real change.

Championing indigenous peoples' rights to transform every space we inhabit.
Exploring the philosophy of Mahi a Atua
Māori knowledge is about more than just a set of beliefs. It's about a way of life and understanding the world. We use our stories to learn about who we are, our place in the universe, and how to live in harmony with each other and the environment.
Our Services
We work with organisations who want to adopt Mahi a Atua as their framework. We provide consultation, leadership, wānanga, training and workshops that prioritise:
Affirmation of whakapapa
Changing systems to improve outcomes
The need to understand how institutional racism impacts the inequity for Māori
