E-Books →The Survival of Māori as a People

spirituality, social development, education and political affairs. Each chapter discusses the importance and
impact of Māori management of Māori matters and the ongoing pursuit of tino rangatiratanga in all areas of life.
Dr Winiata has worked to achieve Māori development, wellbeing and attainment of aspirations over decades:
driving the iwi development programme Whakatupuranga Rua Mano that led to the foundation of the first
contemporary wānanga, Te Wānanga o Raukawa; being key in restructuring the working of Te Hāhi Mihingare;
galvanising the New Zealand Māori Council to hold the Crown accountable over fisheries, forestry, language
and broadcasting; and co-founding the Māori Party with Dame Tariana Turia and Sir Pita Sharples. These
papers, curated by Dr Winiata and Daphne Luke, provide an analysis of recent Māori experience, pursuit of self-determination and history of Aotearoa.
