Te Hāpori Ora – The Village of Wellbeing
Servicing Community Hauora – Collectively, Consciously, Effectively
"The Voices of our Kaitiaki ora”
This presentation celebrates the value of community mobilisation and co-design within the scope of the transformation of all forms of violation, while focussing on whānau, hapu and community wellbeing development.
Can service users go on to be service providers within the transformation of all forms of violation? The answer is Yes! These Kaitiaki Ora, Wellbeing Practitioners, live with vision, and today we have collectively created a company to serve our wider communities. Te Hāpori Ora, The Village of Wellbeing has been birthed to celebrate our collective vision, within Tūwharetoa, transforming social development spaces.
We bring to life a conceptual framework depicting the evolution history of the virtual village of wellbeing. It is our belief if we provide spaces where peoples voices are genuinely heard. With appropriate supports to maintain and sustain their vision. We can achieve anything.
Their indigenous narratives are vital to ensuring we are accomplishing true co-design with communities whilst ensuring they can take ownership and repatriate themselves, to serve within their whānau hapū and communities, Nau mai haere mai come journey with us a while.

Nō roto i te kohu … From within the mist
Opportunity to explore potential is complex specifically when Wairua, tikanga, mauri, mana, tapu, ahua, noa among many others clash. Everything exists in its own right for its own reason purpose and realities. A place to exist for every moment, a time is right when it is right, A cause is never without effect, these are compromised so too is the integrity of it all.
