Mōkai Pātea
Mana Whenua
Mana Tangata

Mōkai Pātea Mana Whenua Mana Tangata is a publication of images and information from the Mōkai Pātea rohe. It was designed to invoke thought and encourage kōrero across many aspects of Mōkai Pātea – from tūpuna and whānau, to marae, whenua, hapū and iwi. It is the hope that this resource will assist the uri of Ngāi Te Ohuake, Ngāti Hauiti, Ngāti Tamakōpiri and Ngāti Whitikaupeka, to place themselves within the Mōkai Pātea kōrero.
