Being Turi - Season 1

Tangata Turi discuss their experiences within Aotearoa's education system, and the establishment and development of Ruaumoko Marae, founded as the Turi community's own marae.

Waitangi Day is the backdrop to a discussion about the urgent need for trilingual interpreters: those who can translate between NZSL, Te Reo Maori and English.

Wahine Turi Maori discuss their lives in connection to Ngati Turi and Te Ao Maori more broadly, their roles both assigned and chosen, and their hopes and goals for the future.

Societal barriers affect tangata Turi every day. This episode asks how these barriers have arisen, what might be done to overcome them, and how technology could be of assistance.

A look at the younger generations of tangata Turi, the choices they are making within and for their community, with particular focus on intersectionality and the experience of rainbow youth.
