Motivation &Purpose forWhānua Ora

“Whānau-ora: restoring the essence of who

we are; putting the vibrant traditions from our people at the heart of our whānau.

Whānau Ora begins with you. Whānau is the heart of our people, it is the

foundation on which our country thrives. It is about reaffirming a sense of self-

belief.”

(Maori Party).

Whanau Ora has an overarching aim of seeking best outcomes for whānau
