Rangatiratanga is the art of weaving people together for the collective good!
This kupu derives from ranga (to weave) and tira (a group of people). A rangatira is someone who can weave people together, maintain relationships and provide direction for the good of everyone.
In the second video in our Te Wiki o te Reo Māori series, Helen Te Hira talks about this meaningful kupu and how it shows up when we bring people together, care for our kin from te taiao (the natural world), and the responsibility we have to future generations.
Rangatiratanga forms how we understand the relationship between Mātauranga Māori and western science, build meaningful conservation partnerships, and the role both mana whenua and mātāwaka play in caring for and understanding the living world around us.
