Book giveaway

We’re giving away a copy of the groundbreaking new book 'Mana Moana' written by current Business School Deputy Dean Professor Carla Houkamau (Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Kahungunu, Kāi Tahu) and Dr Robert Pouwhare (Ngāi Tūhoe).

Mana Moana dives into the legacy of Māori fisheries, Indigenous economic development, and the role of Te Tiriti o Waitangi in business. The book explores Māori fishing traditions, inter-tribal trade, and traces the enduring connection between Māori and the moana. It also highlights key moments in Māori fishing rights, including the 1992 Treaty of Waitangi Fisheries Settlement and the creation of Moana New Zealand—a company owned by 58 iwi, guided by te ao Māori values.
