Ngā Iwi i Te Rohe o Te Waiariki has published the findings for our Stage Three Te-Moana-a-Toi Aquaculture Opportunities research and we would love to hear your whakaaro and pātai.
This stage of our mahi has focused on exploring pathways to develop sustainable, resilient and world-class Māori aquaculture opportunities across the region.
The new findings include reports on:
- Workforce Development Plan – outlining the amount of initial and ongoing jobs these opportunities will create
- Cultural Assessment Plan – assessing how Māori values have informed the kaupapa, as well as high-level cultural considerations
- Economic Assessment – outlining the feasibility of these opportunities and potential GDP growth
- Summary – Summary of Stage Three
The governance model and three step process for this kaupapa was designed to be iwi-led, collaborative, strategic and inclusive, while generating investment-ready propositions that deliver holistic outcomes for Māori, and Aotearoa.
We encourage you to take a look at the findings and relay any comments, queries and feedback to Nicole Pakau at nicole@tearawafisheries.maori.nz.
