How mātauranga Māori enables effective social investment

Sacha also shared insights from a soon to be published report providing kaupapa Māori recommendations for social investment. Sacha was instrumental in synthesising He Ara Waiora, a framework that helps the Treasury understand Māori perspectives on wellbeing, from discussions amongst leaders in mātauranga Māori.
