Revitalising Whānau, Strengthening Whakapapa is the renewal of Māori identity through connection, participation, and intergenerational belonging. It is about fostering unity within whānau, ensuring relationships remain strong, inclusive, and adaptive across time. It is about empowering whakapapa - honouring ancestral ties while creating pathways for future generations to engage, thrive, and carry the kaupapa forward.
Through sport, cultural immersion, and collective celebration, Iwi of Origin breathes life into these connections, making participation a living expression of whakapapa in action. The revitalisation is not just about preserving tradition - it is about evolving, expanding, and embedding Māori presence in ways that endure and uplift all who take part.
Play. Connect. Belong
