Ngāti Mākino Iwi Authority

Initial Kia Mākino E Insights

We are developing a new joint strategy to set the vision, priorities, investments and activities of Ngāti Mākino Iwi Authority, Ngāti Mākino Heritage Trust, and Ngāti Mākino Assets Ltd, to support our Iwi to achieve its aspirations through to 2050.

Our strategy will guide our entities, future development, financial growth, and sustainability, as well as support the ongoing delivery of support and benefits for ngā uri now.

To do this, we created a significant whānau survey kaupapa, called Kia Mākino E, to help us understand the things that matter most to you, ngā uri o Mākino.

We had an incredible response with nearly 450 surveys completed in both te reo Pākehā and te reo Māori, as well as feedback through wānanga.

As part of our AGM, General Manager Nicki Douglas shared some of the initial insights from Kia Mākino E, as well as the information on Ngāti Mākino that is publicly available on Te Whata.

The insights you have provided are invaluable, and we’ll continue to engage with you and get your thoughts on various parts as we work through the strategy development process. We hope you will continue to keep sharing your whakaaro, feedback and pātai with us either in person or by contacting our tari - admin@ngatimakino.co.nz

About the Survey

Kia Mākino E was created to help us understand the things that matter most to you, ngā uri o Mākino, so that our 2050 strategy reflects the thoughts, concerns and needs of all of our whānau.

The survey was designed to understand the social, economic, environmental and cultural factors that you and your whānau are thinking about, so we can plan effectively for the future.

Kia Mākino E will guide the development of our strategy, and help decide the programmes, activities and investments we make.
