He Tapuwae – Concepts and principles of a Te Ao Tūroa informed economy

A podcast describing the principles of Te Ao Turoa and how they relate to, and can inform, the development of Māori economies (June 2024)

This podcast explores a Te Ao Tūroa informed economy, integrating traditional Māori knowledge (Mātauranga Māori) with modern practices for sustainability. Te Ao Tūroa, meaning 'the natural world', values the interconnectedness of life and environment. This podcast discusses a circular economy rooted in Māori values, promoting resource regeneration and preserving ecosystem mauri (life force). Key principles include mauri (life force) whakapapa (genealogy) for understanding human-environment relationships and mana (integrity) for community resilience.
