From the event page:
"We welcome you to fill your baskets of knowledge, to dive into the wellsprings of intellect, experience and ancient-knowing. To bring with you your wisdom that will bind together with mine, to bring our collective prosperity to light. It is affirmed with the breath of life! Tihei, mauri ora!
Indigenous communities are at the forefront of innovative development, drawing on ancestral knowledge and contemporary strategies to address issues in all aspects of our worlds. From health and wellbeing to education, environmental stewardship to justice, technology and innovation to cultural revitalisation, we will be bringing these various threads together in one place.
Join us as we gather alongside Indigenous change makers, visionaries, and leaders from across Aotearoa New Zealand in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland for the Empowering Indigenous Voices International Symposium"
