Takiwātanga Resource Project developing culturally appropriate autism resources

Krissy Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

Altogether Autism and Kanorau are working together to develop and provide culturally appropriate Takiwātanga (Autism) resources for the community, whānau, hapū and iwi.

The aim is to:

. provide credible and up to date information to whānau Māori around Takiwātanga
. invite open feedback, reflection and discussion to amplify and extend the voices of whānau Māori to express their understanding of Takiwātanga
. create free learning resources to develop relevant information and share knowledge through a Te Ao Māori lens on Takiwātanga
. create resources that can be used by Tāngata Whaitakiwātanga, whānau and professionals who engage and support Tāngata Whaitakiwātanga and their whānau.

You can contribute to this mahi by:

. completing the online survey

. attending the wānanga in Auckland on Monday 11 March 2024 or online www.surveymonkey.com...

. getting in touch at info@altogetherautism.org.nz or admin@kanorau.org

For more information, please visit the Takiwātanga Resource Project page on the Altogether Autism website.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
