Reo anxiety is real.

Learning a language is one thing. Speaking it out loud is another.

Learning a language can be exciting, but it can also bring anxiety.

Many learners experience "reo anxiety" the fear of making mistakes, being corrected, or not feeling confident enough to speak. The good news is that confidence grows through practice and support.

Joining a te reo Māori course provides a safe space to learn, ask questions, and build confidence alongside others on the same journey.

Don't wait until you're perfect to start speaking. Start speaking and watch your confidence grow.

Kia māia. Your reo journey matters. 🔗 in comments

What does mana motuhake look like beyond Aotearoa?

In this master's special topic: Mana Motuhake and Treaty-Making in the International Trade Space, learners will explore how concepts such as mana motuhake, rangatiratanga, Te Tiriti, and indigenous rights can be understood in both domestic and international contexts.

This paper asks important questions about whether the models we use here in Aotearoa can also work in the international space and what else may be needed.

Coordinated by Professor Emeritus Jane Kelsey, this Semester 2, 2026.

One hundred and eighty-six years ago, a sheet of paper arrived in Whakatāne. 📜

Today we know it as the Fedarb sheet, one of several copies of Te Tiriti o Waitangi carried throughout Aotearoa in 1840 to gather the signatures of rangatira. Named after Crown official Henry Fedarb, it would become the copy upon which twelve Ngāti Awa rangatira affixed their names on 16 June 1840. Tautari, Mōkai, Mato,Tarawatewate, Tūnui, Taupiri, Haukākawa, Pīariari, Matatēhokia, Rewa, Tūpara and Mōkai Teina each signed on behalf of their own people and communities.

Free trade agreements are often presented as being about trade, but what else do they enable?

In this master's special topic: Mana Motuhake and Treaty-Making in the International Trade Space, learners will critically examine how international trade agreements can impact mātauranga Māori and other areas connected to Indigenous rights, resources, rangatiratanga, and Te Tiriti.

This paper invites learners to look beyond the surface of trade and explore the deeper questions of power, rights, and Indigenous authority in the international space.

Coordinated by Professor Emeritus Jane Kelsey, this Semester 2, 2026.
