Ka whati te tai, Ka pao te Torea. "As the tide recedes the Oystercatcher strikes"Ka Pao is a complete rebuild of an online initiative originally funded by the Poutama Trust. While we were building, we heard of the upcoming launch of the Māori Economic Development Panel's Strategy and Action Plan. This was an opportunity to strike... and so we launched Ka Pao, in support of the Māori Economic Development Panel. We are firm in our original belief that we also need a place to meet, to be inspired, and to be informed... to have a place where we can question, where we welcome debate, and where we can tell our stories. Ka Pao is a Māori community, business and development network - news, opinion, blogs, discussions, culture, language, information and resources. Haere Mai! |
