receives the Royal assent. Part 1 Te Urewera Subpart 1—Background, purpose, and principles 3 Background to this Act Te Urewera (1) Te Urewera is ancient and enduring, a fortress of nature, alive with history; its scenery is abundant with mystery, adventure, and remote beauty. (2) Te Urewera is a place of spiritual value, with its own mana and mauri. (3) Te Urewera has an identity in and of itself, inspiring people to commit to its care. Te Urewera and Tūhoe (4) For Tūhoe, Te Urewera is Te Manawa o te Ika a Māui; it is the heart of the great fish of Maui, its name being derived from Murakareke, the son of the ancestor Tūhoe. (5) For Tūhoe, Te Urewera is their ewe whenua, their place of origin and return, their homeland. 8 2014 No 51 Te Urewera Act 2014 Part 1 s 4 (6) Te Urewera expresses and gives meaning to Tūhoe culture, language, customs, and identity. There Tūhoe hold mana by ahikāroa; they are tangata whenua and kaitiaki of Te Urewera. Te Urewera and all New Zealanders (7) Te Urewera is prized by other iwi and hapū who have acknow- ledged special associations with, and customary interests in, parts of Te Urewera.

  • East Coast Conservation Management Strategy
    63 ! 2.1 A VISION FOR CONSERVATION IN THE EAST COAST CONSERVANCY The Conservancy's function is to conserve the natural and historic heritage of New Zealand for the benefit of present and future generations. The following pages describe a vision for long term conservation on the East Coast (this CMS describes the ways in which the Conservancy will work towards achieving the vision over the next ten years). The elements of the vision have come from a series of public meetings, and have been combined with the aims of the legislation that the Conservancy works to. The vision is presented here in terms of what this Conservancy can do to contribute to it. Regarding our Natura/_ Heritag:: The natural areas and resources managed by the Conservancy have been maintained and enhanced or rehabilitated as opportunities have arisen. The protection of their values, and public access to them has been managed according to the principal purposes of the relevant legislation. Te Urewera National Park is managed with an emphasis on preserving the natural val~es there in perpetuity. Management will foster recreation and allow tourism where these do not compromise natural values. Biodiversity has been maintained through the protection of natural ecosystems, habitat and species. The range of habitats, and all indigenous life forms found throughout the Conservancy have been protected, and are managed with an awareness of their role in their habitats or ecosystems. The protection of representative or unique examples of natural and physical resources has been ensured, including significant examples of marine habitats, landforms, landscapes, rivers, lakes, wetlands and remnant forest.

  • Tena Koe the Purpose of This Submision Is to Address What We
    Tena Koe The purpose of this submision is to address what we view as a deviation both in spirit and good faith to the current submission process that Opotiki District Council is undertaking with regards to the return of reserves to Te Whānau-ā- Apanui. The underlying land ownership of these blocks remains with the Crown, however, they have either been vested in the Opotiki District Council (ODC) or the ODC has been appointed Control and Management of the said reserve. There are four sections to our submission: 1. The context both historical and current 2. The legislative framework for the transfer 3. The protections that will remain in place if the transfer occurs 4. The nature of opposing submissions 5. An expression of support to the transfer of lands to Te Whānau-ā-Apanui Historic Context: Historically, Te Whānau-ā-Apanui has mana whenua and moana from Hāwai in the west through to Potikirua in the east. We share boundaries with other iwi, boundaries that have been variously contested for 100s of years and more recently confirmed in such institutes as the Māori land Court. Te Whānau-ā-Apanui have long-held grievances with the Crown. Not all of these grievances are not up for negotiation as part of this submissions process. It is worth noting, however, that the Crown has actively acknowledged breaches of the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi through the Agreement in Principle that has been reached between the Crown and Te Whānau-ā-Apanui. The Agreement in Principle can be read here. These breaches have had a catastrophic impact on the iwi from a cultural, social, economic, and environmental perspective.

Te Kawa o Te Urewera is an eloquent and visionary document that is both a disruptive and visionary framework that our country and the planet have needed for some time. Te Kawa serves to disrupt the norm in that it raises hope for a renewed collective responsibility for our impact on the land and it foresees our disciplined response to those impacts. In articulating the Te Urewera identity it reaffirms the natural order that we live within and amongst all of Te Urewera – Papatuanuku. It gives land, water and nature - all the living and life giving processes we are part of - priority over ‘business as usual’.
