Kua mutu te huihuinga mō tēnei tau – that’s a wrap for the Māori Freshwater Fisheries Conference for another year! After a three-year hiatus due to COVID, over 350 manuhiri who joined us from around the motu across the two days in Taupō-nui-a-Tia for two days of inspiring kōrero on our wai Māori taonga and their kainga.

This huihuinga provides an opportunity to kōrero and share expertise, knowledge and understanding of our indigenous fisheries and their habitat as well as identify opportunities and pathways to better protect our wai and taonga mo ake tonu.

We are excited to announce that the hui will now be held annually, with the next hui happening in 2023.
