Kia ora koutou! Welcome to this edition of He Pānui - Te Māngai Pāho, keeping you up to date with the latest news in te reo Māori content and funding across Aotearoa!
Ngarue ana te whenua, ngaoko ana te moana i te hinganga o ngā tōtara o te wao, ā, mō wai ana tērā i te maunga o ngā kākā haetara. Waiho rātou kia tiraha mai, ko tātou ki konei takatū ai ki ngā mahi. Kāti rā, me pēnei noa ake te kōrero, ko rātou ki a rātou ko tātou ki a tātou.
Tēnā rā tātou, e rere kau ana ngā mihi ki a koutou te hunga pāpāhō Māori, koutou hoki e arohaina ana i tō tātou reo rangatira. Mauriora!
It’s been a long time since we have had the opportunity to engage with our friends and colleagues in the Māori media sector. We are looking forward to our wānanga later on today to hear how you are all coping with the challenges this pandemic has thrown our way. It will also be an opportunity for all of us to talk about our aspirations for the year ahead.
Yesterday the government announced a pathway to re-opening our borders and relaxing the constraints the majority of us have been living under (clearly, being Wellington-based we acknowledge that we have had it considerably easier than many of you). However, it is clear that the landscape has changed for the foreseeable future. The new challenge for us will be working with our community to develop new COVID-19 protocols to help us resume production in both a viable and safe way.
Our little team has been busy exploring the ways in which we can improve our contribution to te reo Māori. As you will be aware we have recently increased our internal te reo Māori capacity and our ability to capture and analyse data. We expect that this will play an important part in our growth in the next two or three years.
Larry Parr,
Kaihautū o Te Māngai Pāho
