As part of our ongoing commitment to better understand the aspirations of our hapori Māori, we have been on a journey of māramatanga (understanding). We wanted a platform to share what we've learnt, so we created a podcast series with Tahu FM. 

For the second podcast in this series, Jas from Tahu FM sits down with Rata's Chief Executive, Leighton Evans, and Māori Engagement Advisor, Steve Merito, alongside John Leonard from Ihi Research. They discuss the development of their kaupapa Māori approach to engage with and understand the aspirations of whānau, hapū and iwi.
