Whanaungatanga
It’s about connecting,
it’s about relationships
through shared experiences &
working together
which provides people with a
sense of belonging
Pepeha - basic
Is a way of introducing yourself
in Maori.
Pepeha
for Maori
Pepeha
for non Maori
For Maori, pepeha is a way of
expressing where you come from &
who you connect to. This could be via
landmarks, iwi, hapu & ancestors.
For non Maori, pepeha can be a way
of introducing ourselves in Maori.
It tells people who you are by
sharing your connections with the
people & places that are important
to you.
We start with our maunga as they
were what our ancestors first saw
when they arrived in Aotearoa
centuries ago & were often used as
landmarks when traversing the motu.
We acknowledge other landmarks &
ancestors & our name comes at the
very end. This fits in with te ao Maori
& our collective point of view
“I am we”
Normally when we introduce
ourselves, we say our name which is
an ‘I am me’ perspective.
This western style belief is another
way of looking at the world & how
we’re all wonderfully different.
