Ko wai mātau?
I whakatūria Te Poari o Te Tatau o Te Arawa i te marama o Tīhema 2015. Inā te hirahira o tēnei ekenga i Rotorua, otirā i Aotearoa whānui.
Kua neke atu i te 20 tau a Te Arawa me Te Kaunihera o ngā Roto o Rotorua e ngana ana ki te whakaū i te tika me te pono e whanakehia ai tētehi pātuitanga matatū i waenga i a rāua anō.
Waihoki, ko te wawata nui hoki tērā kua roa e hiahiatia ana; kia whakawhanakehia te whai wāhitanga tika atu a Te Arawa ki ngā whakatau a Te Kaunihera. Nō muri mai i tētehi whakaritenga 18 marama te roa, i whakanuia e te hapori o Rotorua te whakatūnga o Te Poari o Te Tatau o Te Arawa me te waitohunga o te whakaaetanga pātuitanga i waenga i a Te Arawa me Te Kaunihera o ngā Roto o Rotorua i te marama o Tīhema, 2015.
E whakatinana ana te whakaaetanga nei i ngā hiahia o Te Arawa me Te Kaunihera o ngā Roto o Rotorua; kia whakatūria tētehi pātuitanga matatū e ngangahau ai ngā rā kai tua o te awe māpara mō te hapori whānui tonu.
Who are we?
The Te Tatau o Te Arawa Board was established in December 2015 marking a significant achievement for Rotorua and Aotearoa | New Zealand.
For more than 20 years, Te Arawa and the Rotorua Lakes Council had attempted to strengthen trust and build an enduring relationship between each other.
At the same time a deep desire to develop appropriate Te Arawa input into Council decision-making had been quietly simmering under the surface. Following a robust 18 month process, the Rotorua community celebrated the inauguration of the Te Tatau o Te Arawa Board and signed a partnership agreement between Te Arawa and Rotorua Lakes Council in December, 2015.
The agreement embodies the intention of Te Arawa and Rotorua Lakes Council to establish an enduring partnership which creates a future that benefits the community as a whole.
