Whakataukī of the Week with Abby Hauraki

From Nights, 9:15 pm on 24 June 2024

Every Monday on Nights, to set the tone for the rest of the week, a guest shares a whakataukī - a Māori proverb - that's meaningful to them.

Abby Hauraki is an Associate at Kāhui Legal, a specialist law firm working at the forefront of Māori development.

She is also a consultant and kaiako with Engaging Well Limited who helps enable organisations and people to engage effectively with Māori.

She joins Emile Donovan to share a whakataukī for Matariki.

"Matariki hunga nui 
Matariki ahunga nui 
Matariki manako nui"
 
"Matariki, gatherer of people
Matariki, provider of kai
Matariki, granter of hopes and dreams"
