Taringa were privileged to have been invited to kōrerorero on stage at Tuia 2024, where this episode was recorded live, as the hosts discuss what it means to be truely Māori and offering thoughts on how to strive for a collective approach to Māori business and iwi development.

Kia ora e te iwi! In today’s episode of Taringa, we dive into Take, Utu, Ea, exploring how tikanga guides our relationships and balances through koha, reciprocity, and clearing hara. We discuss the importance of being prepared with waiata, how using phones on the pae can be misunderstood, and the different ways Māori and Pākehā value exchanges. Our kōrero touches on the deeper meanings of respect, responsibility, and how tikanga shapes our daily lives.
