Te Puni Kōkiri

Te Puni Kōkiri leads Māori Public Policy and is principal advisor to the Government on Māori outcomes. We monitor policy and legislation, and we provide government with high quality policy advice. Whānau development and whānau-centred approaches sit at the centre of Te Puni Kōkiri policy, activities and initiatives. When whānau are doing well, so too will hapū and iwi - as will New Zealand. A Thriving Whānau builds intergenerational social, cultural and economic wellbeing. Thriving Whānau is our vision.
