Mana Whakairo
Tikanga and kawa that underpin the standards in the domain Mana Whakairo relate
to specific interpretations and understandings of whakapapa, te reo, symbolism,
concepts and representation; and in a whakairo context are quite specific and
therefore distinctive from tikanga and kawa in the broader context of Te Ao Māori
whānui.

Glossary
mana whenua – Māori authority over land area or region;
rangi – sound(s);
kupu – word(s);
awa – river;
maunga – mountain.

Assessment against this unit standard is to be conducted by a fluent speaker of te
reo Māori.
