  1. Tangata whenua values Piloting the process in Murihiku

  2. Murihiku • Awa (rivers) of Murihiku • Four Murihiku Papatipu Rūnanga

  3. Accessing available planning frameworks • The IRMP for the Murihiku region, Te Tangi a Tauira, has 4 overarching principles: • Te Wairua (Spiritual); • Maoritanga (Cultural) • Kaitiakitanga • Mahinga kai

  4. Identifying attributes • Each of the four principles is further defined in the iwi plan. • We use these as our attributes, for example

  5. Te Wairua • Karakia – prayer, incantation • Ki uta ki tau – from the mountains to the sea • Kotahitanga - unity • Mana – integrity, respect, authority, pestige • Mauri – spiritual essence, life-force • Maoritanga - describe the actions of being Maori and living according to Maori customs. • Noa – without restriction • Rangatiratanga – chieftainship, self determination • Tangaroa – diety of the sea and fish and other marine life • Tapu – sacredness, forbidden, restricted • Wairua - spirit • Whakanoa – to remove tapu • Waitapu – sacred waters • Wai whakaheke tupapaku – water burial sites • Whakapapa – genealogy, cultural identity

  6. Mahinga kai • Hapua – coastal / estuarine lagoon, where natural food collects • Kaimoana – seafood, especially shellfish • Kainga nohoanga – village permanently occupied • Mahinga kai – food and the places for obtaining natural foods, methods and cultural activities involved • Nohoanga – temporary campsite for seasonal gathering of food / kai and natural resources • Taiapure – local fisheries areas. • Tauranga ika – fishing ground • Waimataitai – coastal sea and waters in estuaries where the two areas are missed, brackish. Also includes areas of coastal swamp.

  7. Identifying primary attributes Each of the attributes was assessed against five criteria: • It can be used to distinguish between different catchments or parts of a catchment. • It describes features of a catchment, in particular the waterway. • It can be directly assessed by a quantifiable indicator. • It relates to something tangible that can be measured.

  8. Attributes were discounted if they relate more to implementation of the method rather than being representative of the river. For example, Tangata whenua with rights of mana whenua, mana moana (often represented by papatipu runanga) may see application of this method as an expression of their rangatiratanga and a tangible means of upholding their ahi ka. Within their takiwa, they are likely to seek a catchment approach to any assessment consistent with ki uta ki tai. By responsibly participating in activities such as applying this method, they are protecting the waterways for whanau, manuhiri, kaumatua – consistent with the vision of Mo tatou a mo nga uri a muri ake nei. • Attributes were discounted if they relate to a general practice or an activity (karakia, tikanga, kawa, wananga) rather than a water related activity. • Attributes that alone do not represent a measurable attribute but when considered collectively with a series of attributes are likely to lead to the protection of a tangata whenua value.

  9. Hapua Kaimoana Kainga nohoanga Mahinga kai Mauri Nohoanga Marae Rahui Tauranga ika Waimataitai Waiora Taonga Whenua Taonga pounamu Waitapu Waipuna Tauranga waka Wai whakaheke tupapaku Waitohi Whakapapa Waiwera ngawha Topuni Wahi ingoa Wahi tapu Wahi taonga classes Whanaungatanga Primary attributes

  10. Whakapapa • Mauri • Whanaungatanga • Water Classifications • Wahi ingoa & Whakatauki • Mahinga kai • Settlements • Wahi tapu • Wahi taonga classes • Nga mahi (ahua o te awa) • Management mechanisms

  11. Significance • Some values in common but this cant be assumed • Individual, whanau, hapu, iwi • Local, regional, national • Catchments as boundaries

  12. Next steps • Assigning measures (some defined already) • SMART not SMARTA • Putting the framework into a template • Having a hui with Kai Tahu ki Murihiku on 2nd December
