Marae Adaptation

Toitū te marae o Tāne, toitū te marae o Tangaroa, toitū te marae, toitū te iwi

Marae stand at the centre of our culture and our communities, climate change brings flooding, coastal change, extreme weather. These are a tohu to act now.

Kirini works with marae committees, hapū and whānau to:

• assess exposure to hazards

• identify practical adaptation options

• design strategies that protect both buildings and tikanga

Our approach is collaborative and future-focused; listening first, planning with whānau, and ensuring intergenerational use of marae.
