Press Release
Nati Link Digital - August 2026
This month’s edition of Nāti Link – Digital celebrates the people, kaupapa and partnerships creating positive change for Ngāti Porou whānau and communities.
From rangatahi exploring pathways through music and science, to the opening of our new Nāti Pēpi hubs in Ruatōria and initiatives supporting warmer, healthier homes, we share mahi focused on strengthening whānau wellbeing and connection.
We also highlight progress across housing, health workforce development and kaupapa Māori partnerships, alongside Ngāti Porou contributions to Indigenous-led research on the international stage.
We proudly acknowledge Sir Robert McLeod and his induction into the New Zealand Business Hall of Fame, becoming only the second Ngāti Porou inductee to receive this honour, following Sir Āpirana Turupa Ngata.
Together, these stories reflect the leadership, collaboration and commitment helping to create stronger futures for our whānau and our rohe.
Stay connected. Stay engaged.
