Look who I finally got to see after years! 🥰 Finally made it over to Ottawa. Uncle Rongo was the one who planted the seed for me to move here someday. A beautiful full circle moment. ❤️

My Uncle Rongo Wetere, will be receiving the King Charles III Coronation Medal in Ottawa in March. He founded Te Wananga o Aotearoa in 1994, the first Kaupapa Māori tertiary institute & since moving to Ottawa, he has worked tirelessly to support Indigenous communities and language revitalisation. ❤️

“'North of North' is a reminder of values Canadians want to live up to. DEI that shouldn’t be stripped away, but an instrument for righting historical wrongs.”
In ‘North of North,’ a Joyous Celebration of Being Inuk | The Tyee

I’m SO STOKED to be offered a placement in the University of Auckland’s PhD programme! Even better to be hanging out with my dad (my biggest supporter) when the email came through 🥹 so excited to carve my name next to those of the incredible Māori scholars who paved the way for me.

Submission I did on behalf of my mahi to oppose the TPB. Feeling really proud of this one, and so grateful I was given the time, space & support to do it. ❤️❤️
Toitū te Tiriti! (Honour the Treaty!)
We have made a submission to strongly oppose the Principles of The Treaty of Waitangi Bill that is going through Parliament in Aotearoa.
We stand with our Māori whanaunga (relatives) as they fight for removal of this bill.
