Whakapiki Mauri

Na Eruini Hawke

Practice Foundations: November 2024

Mauri Tū, Mauri Ora, Mauri Noho, Mauri Mate

This sessions builds on the May 2022 Practice Foundations “What’s the mauri of the system” led by Dickie Humphries.

We have found that deepening our understanding of mauri supports us to work in complex systems like the public sector. Mauri also helps demonstrate the power and importance of how we, as individual kaimahi, show up within systems change work.

This was an experiential session led by Marisa Pene (Te Tau Ihu, Tokelau) and Eruini Hawke (Ngāti Whātua, Ngāti Mahuta, Ngāti Ranginui, Ngāti Awa, Ngāti Pikiao and Ngāti Maniapoto).

Together we:

  • Grew our awareness of ngā taunga mauri, the states of mauri

  • Explored tools, and pathways to enhance our mauri, and the mauri around us.
