Ko Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga te kaitiaki ōkawa o nga pūranga tūmatanui o Aotearoa – te pūmahara o te kāwanatanga. Ka kohikohi, ka penapena, ka tiaki hoki mātou i te huhua o ngā rauemi e kapo ana i te hononga i waenga i te Māori me te Karauna. Hei hoa Tiriti, e mōhio ana mātou ki te hononga o ngā whānau, ngā hapū me ngā iwi ki ngā taonga tuku iho e tiakina ana e mātou. Ka tautoko mātou i ngā whānau, ngā hapū me ngā iwi ki te whai wāhi mai ki ēnei kohinga, mā ngā huarahi maha, mai i ngā whakaaetanga ōkawa me ngā kaupapa mahi tahi, tae noa ki ngā toronga me ngā tohutohu rangahau.

Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga Archives New Zealand is the official guardian of New Zealand’s public archives – the memory of government. We gather, store and protect a wide range of material that documents the relationship between Māori and the Crown. As a Tiriti partner, we recognise the connections whānau, hapū and iwi have to the taonga tuku iho in our care. We support whānau, hapū and iwi to access these holdings in various ways, from formal agreements and shared projects to tours and research advice.

He maha ngā tari ahurea me ngā tari taonga tuku iho kei raro i a Te Ara Taonga, tae atu ki Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga, ka mahi tahi ki Te Arawhiti me ngā iwi, hei wāhanga o ngā whakataunga take Tiriti. Ko Te Ara Taonga te anga e whakamōhio ana i te āhua o te mahi ngātahi me ngā iwi ki te tautoko i ngā awhero ahurea, taonga tuku iho hoki o ngā iwi. Ka uru ki tēnei ngā Whakaaetanga Tiaki Taonga ōkawa.

Rapua he kōrero mō ngā tari ahurea, mō ā mātou mahi, te āhua o tā mātou mahi ngātahi, me ngā huarahi e mahi ngātahi ai ki a koe i te wā, i muri hoki o te tukanga whakataunga take tiriti, ki te paetukutuku o Te Ara Taonga.

Te Ara Taonga is made up of several culture and heritage agencies, including Archives New Zealand, that work with Te Arawhiti and iwi as part of Tiriti settlements. Te Ara Taonga is the framework which informs how we work together with iwi to support the cultural and heritage aspirations of iwi. This includes formal Whakaāetanga Tiaki Taonga relationship agreements.

Find out about the cultural agencies, what we do, how we work together, and how we can work with you during and after the settlement process on the Te Ara Taonga website.
