Treaty of Waitangi

Treaty of Waitangi

The Treaty of Waitangi is often seen as the founding document for relationships between Maori and the Crown in Aotearoa New Zealand.

In recent years there has been vigorous debate and discussion about the Treaty, yet many people have not read the texts of the Treaty, let alone understand its intention or it’s relevance to modern society.  Understanding the Treaty is important, not only for race relations, but also for good work relations.

The Treaty of Waitangi Tribunal was established in 1975 to hear claims relating to breaches of the Treaty of Waitangi.  A number of key statutes now include reference to the Treaty of Waitangi provisions relating to freedom from discrimination; some of these relate to employment.

The Treaty of Waitangi provides rights for all New Zealanders, including Maori, Pakeha, and subsequent migrants.

We offer interactive workshops/seminars, tailor made to your business, examining the texts of the Treaty and their relevance today.  These will help you and your employees to, not only learn about the Treaty itself, but to develop closer links with Maori and each other, and create a more positive workplace.

The initial workshop is a basis for understanding other issues of diversity in the workplace.
