Growing our relationship with water through indigenous values

 Growing our relationship with water through indigenous values

Indigenous values and knowledge are increasingly embedded in our relationship with water both in Aotearoa New Zealand and across the Tasman.

Ahead of Māori Language Week and the 10th IWA-ASPIRE and Water New Zealand Conference & Expo 2025 at Ōtautahi Christchurch, our hosts Jon Reed and Hannah Edmond are joined by Principal Aboriginal Cultural Advisor at Beca Hunter H20, Phil Duncan. Phil’s a member of Australia’s Gomeroi Nation. Also joining the discussion is Emily Afoa, Pou Whakarae at Tektus and Kairangahau at Pūrangakura, the Māori independent research centre.

Listen to this episode of Tāwara o te Wai, as Emily and Phil discuss how the growing alignment of indigenous knowledge and western science, along with collaboration and connection, is helping reframe our relationship with water and the wider environment.
