Te Tiriti o Waitangi Conversation Guide
How to talk with friends, whānau and workmates
There are many of us looking to engage in conversations with those around us about the importance of Te Tiriti and how this foundational agreement can guide a just and flourishing Aotearoa.
As a follow up to our Te Tiriti explainer, we’ve created this handy guide to support conversations about Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
This concise resource includes a step-by-step guide to navigate tricky conversations, and specific scripts you can use and adapt to grow your understanding of Te Tiriti in generative and supportive ways with those near and dear to you.
