How do we break the cycle?
How do we ensure every young person has a safe, loving home?
How do we stop the funnel into state care?
How can we help whānau reclaim and return to their Whenua?
Strengthen whānau, build our economic base, honor and protect our values and our traditions.

This report has been built on the back of so much data and insights.

We can make a difference.

How do we take the voices of lived experience to shape policies of today and tomorrow?

Thank you JustSpeak and Amnesty International Aotearoa for your vision and committment to raising our awareness of these critical issues.

Thank you Clare foundation for your boldness and courage I'm investing in systems change at the grassroots.

Last year JustSpeak and Amnesty International NZ launched this very important report "If I was Prime Minister - Insights and Experiences of Rangatahi in the Aotearoa New-Zealand justice system".

Last night MEA curated a special thank you event for Rangatahi whose voices are captured in the report.

Various supporters and organisations supported this very special night of connection, that was strengthen through conversations of care and community based on the themes of Matariki, two of the young people shared their experiences and at the end the incredible rua wrapped up with a stunning spoken word piece based on the whakatauki "Hurihia tō aroaro ki te rā, tukuna to atarangi kia taka ki muri i a koe - Turn your faces towards the sun, and the shadows will fall behind you".

It has been a privilege to walk beside Just Speak and Amnesty to bring this evening together.

A massive mihi also to and their Rangatira mō āpōpō kaupapa, the whānau from Mā Te Huruhuru, Houhanga Rongo Trust and Manaaki rangatahi for coming. Finally to our tūāhine Oriini Kaipara for joining us also.

It was a privilege for our Director Kaye-Maree Dunn to attend the international Women Deliver event.

As a guest of Māori Women's Development Inc - MWDI we were able to participate and contribute to the drafting of ideas for this statement.

It was incredible seeing the mic move around the room to women representing their respective nations and cultures to continue to refine and shape the statement to reflect the realities, hopes and challenges indigenous women face.

Our Director asked for there to be a consideration to ensure equitable access to the internet as an inherent right alongside training and capability development.

Please read and sign this statement.

For all of us.

We love Hunt for the Wilderpeople so much

Earlier in the month Manaaki Rangatahi and Mā Te Huruhuru launched the More than a Home report to the public.

Yesterday Te Paati Māori MP Oriini Kaipara mō Tāmaki Makaurau has submitted the submitted a Youth Homelessness Prevention’ Bill. If successful, the Bill will enact a Duty to Assist for certain government agencies, establish an Authority for Rangatahi, ensure adequate funding, and most importantly - it prioritises reporting mechanisms to ensure accurate data so that no rangatahi is ever homeless again.

This is an extraordinary outcome for our rangatahi/taitamariki who are in or experiencing homelessness.

They are asking for safety, security and a warm bed to place their head.

Earlier in the year our team supported the efforts of Mā Te Huruhuru and Manaaki Rangatahi to develop the More than a Home Report.

Thanks to the advocacy of Hon Marama Davidson both of these organisations are now launching the report right in the heart of Parliament.

Considering the housing challenges many whānau are facing and that youth on the street are getting younger and younger.

We need to do more!

If you want to join us tomorrow please reach out to our Director Kaye-Maree Dunn for more information.

🌿 Farewell & Ngā Mihi Nui, Terima!

After four incredible years with the MEA whānau, we’re saying farewell to our amazing kaimahi, Terima Walker. From helping us tell stories that matter to amplifying kaupapa that uplift communities, her creativity and heart have left a lasting impact on our team and mahi.

As she moves on to new adventures, we celebrate all she’s contributed: the dedication, aroha, and authenticity she brought to every post, campaign, and project.

We thank her whānau and the Digital Doers kaupapa that helped us find the incredible talent that is Terima.
