About He Tukutuku Koiora:
He Tukutuku Koiora is a tikanga-led, future-focused Māori governance programme to accelerate talented Māori professionals into tomorrow’s governance leadership roles. The two-and-a-half-year programme includes online and in-person learning modules, manaaki support and mentoring, and concludes with an 18-month capstone associate directorship placement.
Through a supportive learning environment that’s embedded in tikanga Māori, the programme aims to grow the next generation of future Māori leaders and strengthen their leadership skillset so that they are resilient, capable, connected, critically minded, and forward-thinking in their approach.
With the increasing demand for values-based leadership, He Tukutuku Koiora ensures our next wave of Māori governance practitioners have the expertise, guidance, and support to be effective governors and leaders of tomorrow.
As Amonuku (Associate Directors) complete the programme, they will join Tapuwae Roa’s growing alumni network and form the largest cohort of Māori professionals in leadership and governance roles within Aotearoa.
