Iwi & Hapū Planning Documents

Mā te rongo, ka mōhio

Mā te mōhio, ka mārama

Mā te mārama, ka mātau

Mā te mātau, ka ora

From awareness, comes knowing

From knowing, comes understanding

From understanding, comes wisdom

From wisdom, comes well-being

This webpage contains links to iwi and hapū planning documents that describe the values and aspirations of mana whenua for their rohe. Reading an iwi or hapū planning document may help people to understand the local Māori world view, their values, and the importance that the iwi and hapū place on their relationship with the environment. This may help in their work with iwi Māori.

Iwi and hapū planning documents provide an avenue through which their interests can be considered in planning processes. They provide information that may assist others, including Councils, to determine how they can take these plans into consideration.

Manawatū District Council is aware of the documents listed below but acknowledge that there may be others. Council is open to receiving planning documents as they become available.
