Here\u2019s how it aligns with our kaupapa:<\/p><ul><li>Our work acknowledges Taonga P\u016boro not just as instruments, but as whakapapa-woven soundscapes and healing media. Dr Tamarapa\u2019s lecture echoes that lens \u2014 urging institutions to awaken M\u0101ori practices rather than archive them.<\/li><li>The talk invites us to consider how museums and cultural spaces can be transformed: from passive spaces of display to active sites of M\u0101ori practice, storytelling, sound-making and cultural continuity. This resonates with Haumanu\u2019s vision of creating w\u0101nanga, digital platforms and networks where M\u0101ori music and m\u0101tauranga thrive.<\/li><li>Haumanu\u2019s own work with taonga, practitioners and rangatahi aligns with the call for descendant engagement, agency, co-governance and cultural reclaiming in heritage institutions. This event amplifies that deeper institutional shift.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d9aa589 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d9aa589\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.haumanucollective.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/power_to_the_puoro-132.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1160\" alt=\"Power to the P\u016boro, 2021.

Due to historical events there was a decline in the use and cultural practice of the instrumental traditions within M\u0101ori culture and with the knowledge base connected to it.  There has been a revival of this craft over the last 30-40 years, led by the late Hirini Melbourne, Richard Nunns, Brian Flintoff and Ringinui Keefe, Joe Malcolm, Clem Mellish, Rangiiria Hedley, Aroha Yates Smith, and Hinewirangi Kohu Morgan, Ross and Bruce Gregory, Te Miringa Hohaia and others.  Haumanu has grown from these initiatives.
