Umanga Mahi

He aha te mea nui o te ao? He tāngata, he tāngata, he tāngata. What is the most important thing in the world? It is people, it is people, it is people.

We know it is our people who embody the potential of Te Puni Kōkiri.

We focus on unleashing the potential of our people to provide leadership and to influence the system to improve policies and services that deliver to and for whānau, hapū, Iwi and Māori.
