This webinar shares findings from a kaupapa Māori researcher-led project for Wellington City Council, Understanding Homelessness: Wāhine Māori lived experiences of rough sleeping in Wellington City and their safety needs (2025). The research sheds light on pathways to homelessness, as well as how wāhine Māori experience and navigate safety – physical, emotional, spiritual, and cultural - while living without a home.
