Hīkoi mō te Tiriti: A Journey of Unity

What's the deal with this "Hīkoi mō te Tiriti"? It's basically a huge walk, or "hīkoi", across Aotearoa, bringing people together to learn about the Treaty of Waitangi and its impact on our lives today. It's about remembering the promises made in that treaty and how we can build a stronger future for all New Zealanders.

So, why is this walk so important? Well, it's about understanding the past and how it shapes the present. The Treaty of Waitangi is a massive part of our history, and we need to learn from it to move forward. This hīkoi is like a massive history lesson on wheels, bringing together different communities and generations to discuss, debate, and find solutions.

More than just a walk

It's not just about walking from one end of the country to the other; it's about building relationships, sharing stories, and creating dialogue. The hīkoi is a chance for people to connect with the treaty in a real and personal way. It's about learning from our elders, sharing our experiences, and acknowledging the challenges and triumphs that have come with being a Treaty nation.

Making a difference

Think of the hīkoi as a big ol' conversation, where different groups of people can come together to share their perspectives and build a better future. It's about acknowledging the past, finding common ground, and moving forward together. It's about creating a more inclusive and just society for all New Zealanders.

This walk is not just for Māori, though. It's for everyone who cares about the future of Aotearoa. It's a chance to learn about the history of our country, to understand the issues that affect our communities, and to find ways to work together for a better future.

The journey is just beginning, so jump on board! Get involved, learn, share, and contribute to building a future where everyone can thrive. Hīkoi mō te Tiriti - a journey of unity.
