Media Release: National Family Violence Agency Becomes Partner to the Accord

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 01:06:52 GMT

A Mihi Whakatau to welcome the new agency into the Accord — acknowledging the dedication, collaboration, and collective mahi that has brought us to this significant moment.

Tuesday 17 March 2026

The Centre for Family Violence and Sexual Violence Prevention has become a Crown agency partner in the Te Hiku o Te Ika Iwi-Crown Social Development and Wellbeing Accord. The Accord was signed in 2013 as part of a Te Tiriti o Waitangi redress settlement, and through a 2018 refresh of the relationship, the Addendum was signed in 2020. This established provisions for new Crown agencies to become partners in the Accord.

Rather than addressing housing, employment, education, and infrastructure as separate challenges, the Social Accord uses a unified systems approach where every intervention creates multiplier effects across all sectors. This represents a commitment to working in partnership with Te Hiku Iwi to realise the shared vision for the wellbeing and development of our communities. This Accord establishes a framework for meaningful collaboration, consultation, and coordination between Crown agencies and Te Hiku Iwi as we work together on a journey to fulfil a Te Hiku whānau-aspired state of wellbeing.

Te Hiku o Te Ika carries some of the highest rates of family violence in Aotearoa. Te Aorerekura 2025–2030 Action Plan classifies Te Tai Tokerau, including Kaitāia, in the highest band nationally for family violence investigations: between 36 and 61 per 1,000 people (Ministry of Justice, 2023).

Since November 2017, Te Hiku Iwi and New Zealand Police have partnered through Whiria Te Muka. It was the first initiative established under the Accord. Its mandate is to work within existing systems and at the frontline of whānau harm in the Far North. In 2024–2025, Whiria Te Muka responded to 1,475 episodes of family harm involving 2,486 individuals across the rohe. Forty-four percent of all cases were managed as high risk. These realities make clear that Whiria Te Muka has significant work ahead.

“He aha te mea nui o tēnei ao? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata. These words belong to our tūpuna whaea Meri Ngaroto from Te Aupōuri, and they are the foundation of this Accord. We welcome those into the Accord who dedicate specific effort to the Te Aorerekura work. This is the level of commitment we want to continue seeing across agencies to the shared vision of the Accord: Kia whiwhi ngā hāpori, whānau, hapū me ngā Iwi o Te Hiku o Te Ika, i te oranga tonutanga, kia rānea, that the communities of Te Hiku o Te Ika are culturally, socially and economically prosperous.”

— Roberta Grbich , Co-Chair, Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust / Te Rarawa Representative.

“The Accord has been leading transformational approaches to improving the wellbeing of whānau in the rohe since 2013. It is the engine for Iwi and Crown to support and transform systems to better serve whānau. We know that family violence and sexual violence affect many people in Aotearoa New Zealand, and one of the most effective ways to address these issues is through Treaty partnership-led responses such as Whiria Te Muka. I am delighted that the Centre for Family Violence and Sexual Violence Prevention is working alongside Whiria Te Muka to give effect to the identified aspirations. The Centre for Family Violence and Sexual Violence Prevention CEO will join me in future Accord hui, and we look forward to making progress through the System Conditions Working Group and other Accord governance forums to achieve our shared aspiration for safe and thriving whānau in Te Hiku o Te Ika.”

— Andrew Kibblewhite, Chair, Executive Board for the Elimination of Family Violence and Sexual Violence

An independent Social Return on Investment analysis by Business and Economic Research Limited (BERL), published in August 2025, found Whiria Te Muka delivered $4.56 in social returns for every $1 invested. Based on a government investment of just over $5 million, the programme generated $62.76 million in social value for the Far North community over the four years to June 2024. Whiria Te Muka is the place-based partnership with tangata whenua that Te Aorerekura 2025–2030 Action Plan calls for.

The Accord is in its thirteenth year of mahi to provide a means for the Crown and Te Hiku Iwi to work together to achieve the shared outcomes. Its continued growth reflects the commitment of all partners to the wellbeing of Te Hiku whānau, tamariki, and communities.

Kia whiwhi ngā hāpori, whānau, hapū me ngā Iwi o Te Hiku o Te Ika, i te oranga tonutanga, kia rānea. The shared vision is that the communities of whānau, hapū and Iwi of Te Hiku ō Te Ika are culturally, socially and economically prosperous (Te Hiku o Te Ika Iwi-Crown Social Development and Wellbeing Accord, 2013).

Nāu te rourou, nāku te rourou, ka ora ai te iwi.

With your basket and my basket, the people will thrive.

Media Release: Te Hiku Whānau Living Through Meth Crisis

Wed, 19 Nov 2025 20:32:09 GMT

Feasibility study provides roadmap as government commits investment into communities hardest hit by meth harm.

For Immediate Release

19 November 2025

STARTS

In 2020, 50% of children taken into care by Oranga Tamariki in Te Hiku cited methamphetamine as the primary reason. By 2024, that figure rose to 90%. Nine out of every ten tamariki being removed from their homes in Te Hiku are losing their families to methamphetamine addiction. Wastewater testing data confirms this crisis, showing a 96% increase in methamphetamine consumption in 2024 compared to 2023.

"Te Hiku whānau are suffering," said Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust (THIDT) Chairman Abe Witana. "For four years we have raised this issue through the Social Development and Wellbeing Accord, and we are starting to believe no one can hear our ongoing cry for support. Te Hiku is in a methamphetamine crisis that isn't getting better—it's getting worse."

Te Hiku represents 36.6% of Northland's population, one of only three priority regions named under the national action plan. The region is a known hotspot for methamphetamine use, manufacture, and distribution, yet whānau have largely been left to face this crisis alone. Of twelve providers supporting families through addiction, only four receive government funding specifically for alcohol and drug services. Resources are inadequate to the scale of the crisis.

Witana called for the government's newly announced action plan to be deployed through evidence-based, locally designed pathways that support service providers. "We want to acknowledge that Te Hiku service providers are struggling to meet demand. Their hard work, late nights, and innovation often go unrecognised," he said.

A comprehensive feasibility study commissioned by THIDT in partnership with the Ministry of Health and delivered by Pūrangakura Kaupapa Māori Research Centre provides a clear roadmap for sustainable investment. The study centres the voices and lived experiences of whānau, practitioners, specialists, and service providers responding to methamphetamine harm in Te Hiku.

The study identifies community-level deprivation as the strongest predictor of methamphetamine harm. Addiction recovery becomes secondary when whānau are in survival mode trying to manage unstable housing and food insecurity. Te Hiku faces extreme deprivation, where intergenerational unemployment, benefit dependency, and poverty-level wages create conditions in which addiction thrives. This crisis is not a failure of whānau, it is the direct result of systemic neglect.

"Our feasibility study shows what's needed, not just more funding, but sustainable investment in locally led solutions," said Carol Berghan, CEO of THIDT. "The study recommends a multi-tiered model delivering treatment through all recovery stages—from detox to long-term support—using locally and culturally appropriate approaches."

"Te Hiku whānau are living through a crisis that demands immediate action," Berghan continued. "The evidence is clear about what works. We need sustainable cross-agency investment for service providers delivering the locally led solutions that are achieving the outcomes we all seek."

Te Hiku Iwi leaders emphasised that Iwi, communities, and health service providers have outlined the approach and solutions needed in the feasibility study. The Trust acknowledged all who contributed to the study, with special recognition to lead researcher Dr. Jo Mane for bringing these voices together.

Te Hiku Iwi Submission - Sale and Supply of Alcohol (Community Participation) Amendment Bill

Thu, 09 Mar 2023 21:47:14 GMT

Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust carry Te Hiku o Te Ika Whānau Voice into the Justice Committee Whare

On the 1st of March 2023, Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust CEO Carol Berghan alongside Whiria Te Muka Kaiwhakapā Erena Hodgkinson carried the pou of lifting Te Hiku o Te Ika whānau voice into the Justice Committee oral submission process as they look to amend the ‘Sale and Supply of Alcohol’ bill.

“We have called our submission 5F in a can and we want to unpack that for you.. 5F is a family harm investigation and report filed by Police following a 111 call for whānau harm. Alcohol features in a quarter of all 5F (reports) in Te Hiku. Our submission is based on alcohol harm and reported family violence in Te Hiku”.

- CEO of Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust, Carol Berghan.

What’s the official process?

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

What is the bill amendment aiming to do?

This bill aims to improve communities' ability to influence alcohol regulation in their area by making targeted changes to the alcohol licensing process provided for in the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012.

Alcohol is consistently the leading pressure point for reported family violence in Te Hiku o Te Ika. Reported alcohol-related family violence incidents have increased steadily from 247 incidents in 2018 to 344 in 2022. Notably, of all whānau harm happening in Te Hiku only 25% is reported through the official 111 Police pathways – the rest remains largely unreported.

Our data (Pātaka o Whiria Te Muka) shows that alcohol is consistently the largest recorded trigger of family violence reported to New Zealand Police, in Te Hiku. In 2018, 25 percent of the 976 family violence incidents reported to us showed alcohol as a contributing factor. This impacted 611 people, including 126 tamariki under the age of 16.

In 2022, 23% of the 1502 family violence incidents reported to us showed alcohol as a contributing factor. This impacted 729 people, including 114 tamariki under the age of 16.

We have collected insights into the supply of alcohol in Te Hiku and its impact on our whānau – What we know is…

There is an over-supply of existing alcohol licenses in Te Hiku

The land area for Te Hiku is estimated at 3502 square kilometers. At our last count, there were 14 Club-Licenses, 23 Off-Licenses, 3 Temporary Off-Licenses, and 19 On-Licenses currently active in Te Hiku. There were also records of 18 Special Licenses having been issued for events held throughout Te Hiku over the past year or so.

Public engagement in the alcohol licensing process is minimal

The Far North District Council notifies the public of alcohol license applications and renewals on its website. It will also communicate this information on the proposed premises itself. A minimal level of public engagement means that affected communities aren’t notified about any applications and renewals unless they proactively seek out the information themselves.

There is no existing Local Alcohol Policy (LAP) in the Far North District

Having no Local Alcohol Policy in our District means that there is limited opportunity for our whānau and communities to engage with a significant tool in the reduction and prevention of alcohol-related harm.

“Some weeks we get none and some weeks we get smashed. For instance, on Sunday, I call it our domie day because all the whānau wake up after they’ve been on the booze with no kai, and just end up having big rarus with each other. And we just get hammered.” - Kaimahi

What Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust and Whiria Te Muka support of the amendment bill…

New section 83: Recommencing the development of a local alcohol policy.

There is a connection between the abandonment of Far North District Council’s Local Alcohol Policy and the increase in alcohol-related reported family harm in Te Hiku since 2018. We think it is reasonable that our local alcohol policy includes accountability mechanisms that require alcohol licensees to report back to the communities they serve.

Section 102, clause 10 and section 128, clause 11: objections to applications and renewals of alcohol licenses.

The widespread dynamics and geographical spread in Te Hiku mean that we support that any person may object because alcohol harm does not discriminate. We recommend that the geographic criteria are removed and environmental criteria for people to object are written into the Act, like the Resource Management Act.

“It takes us, if we’re lucky, 15 days to go to all our community saying please can you just sign this...and if they live outside 500m of the proposed site, they’re not allowed in there. They’re not allowed a part of it.” - Te Hiku Whānau

New section 203A, clause 14: licensing committees must establish appropriate procedures.

Te Hiku whānau struggle with the process of raising objections and speaking at hearings - particularly when cross-examined by industry legal executives. We recommend all tri-agencies involved in the alcohol licensing process offer face-to-face training and upskilling to whānau in written and oral submissions.

“We have corporations running and controlling communities because they have the lawyers. They’re set up to promote their product. So, they even beat councils. They have the process and the power of law because they have more money. They can just out-money you and determine how much alcohol flows into any given community. So, that’s not the power of the people. That’s the power of the corporate.” - Te Hiku Whānau

Section 205 (5): hearing procedures

All hearings for the Far North District Council are held at the Kaikohe and Kerikeri Service Centres. Neither locations are accessible to Te Hiku-based whānau. We recommend that all District Licensing Authority hearings are held face-to-face at all functional service centres within a local territorial authority's area.

In the Far North District Council area, for example, this would include Kaitāia, Kaeo, Paihia, Hokianga, Rāwene and Kawakawa – all of which provide good reach for rurally located whanau to attend within a reasonable distance.

Regulation 18: Appeals against an element of a Provisional Local Alcohol Policy

We have learnt in the Far North how repeat appeals against a Provisional Local Alcohol Policy results in the erosion of whānau efficacy to the local policies that impact their daily lives. We also understand that the ability under the regulations to appeal is not working as intended. It is causing unnecessary delays and preventing territorial authorities from adopting LAPs at all.

“I’ve been following the Auckland LAP process, but that’s been held up in Court for years now because the alcohol industry has money to drag it out and know that the Council doesn’t have the same kind of money to spend on lawyers and court fees. So, it’s looking like the LAP will not be coming into effect in Auckland.” - Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust Kaimahi

Our final key calls to action:

Resources need to be made available to local territorial authorities to enable them to do the job that communities expect them to do.
All agencies are totally clear on their accountability to support the local territorial authorities in the development and monitoring of their local alcohol policies.
We create enough space within the Bill to provide for locally-led solutions that communities can participate
and own.
There is a socio-economic win-win. We just need to get the guard rails right and in place to meet all interests
of our communities.
We make sure that there is public reporting at the local and regional levels on the impact of the supply and sale of alcohol so that communities can be empowered to put the right solutions in play.

Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust understands that the amendments are designed to improve the communities’ ability to influence alcohol regulation. The Te Hiku o Te Ika Iwi – Crown Social Development and Wellbeing Accord places us in partnership with Crown agencies and mandates us to seek Mana Tangata for Te Hiku whānau.

Our role is to represent the voice of our Te Hiku whānau, hapū, Iwi, and communities whose voices have long struggled to be heard. Our Te Hiku voices have told us, and we have lifted that voice into the right space.

We want to see this Bill work as intended and we support the intention of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol (Community Participation) Amendment Bill.

Ngā mihi mahana,

Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust

Hutia te rito o te harakeke, kei hea te komako e kō e?

Uia mai te pātai - he aha te mea nui ō te ao?

Māku e kī atu – he tāngata, he tāngata, he tāngata.

Ngahuru Media Release

Ngahuru Media Release

Te Hiku Iwi Chairs and Ministers welcome Ngahuru, the celebration of the Te Hiku o Te Ika Iwi – Crown Social Development and Wellbeing Accord in action for ten years.

STARTS

“Far North Iwi and the Crown are working in partnership to improve the wellbeing of whānau in Te Hiku o Te Ika – this is the purpose of the Te Hiku Social Development and Wellbeing Accord,” said Ngāi Takoto Co-Chair Wallace Rivers, it was part of the Te Hiku o Te Ika Iwi Treaty Settlement negotiations signed in Waitangi February 2013, and it is here to stay.”

Iwi leaders Katie Murray (Te Rarawa) Peter-Lucas Jones (Te Aupōuri) Wallace Rivers and Kaio Karipa (Ngāi Takoto Co-Chairs) and Harry Burkhardt (Ngāti Kuri) will be joined by Deputy Prime Minister Hon Carmel Sepuloni, Hon Kelvin Davis MP for Te Tai Tokerau and other iwi leaders, Ministers, Te Hiku community members, and officials to celebrate Ngahuru – the 10th anniversary of the Accord on 3 February 2023 at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. The Accord was signed in 2013 between Te Aupōuri, Ngāi Takoto, Te Rarawa, Ngāti Kuri Iwi, and the Crown as part of the Te Hiku o Te Ika Treaty negotiations.

“No one handed us a template on how to develop or implement an Accord partnership, we have had to build it with the Crown from scratch. This has been a learning journey for both partners, with a couple of resets along the way” said Katie Murray, Te Rūnanga o Te Rarawa Iwi Chair. We’re still learning how to get it right – what is and isn’t working and support agencies to do what our whānau need them to do”.

The Accord aims to uplift the lives of the people of the Far North in seven key outcomes including education, the justice system, employment, economic development, housing, health, and cultural resilience.

“Working together hasn’t been plain sailing but I’m glad we have persevered,” said Katie Murray. “It has taken us some time to build trust and confidence with each other as well as the Crown. It’s not all lovey-dovey however this is a kaupapa about our whānau, not ourselves, and it’s important we all cooperate fully in the process.”

The celebration is named Ngahuru which is an ancient Māori term for the number ten. It also refers to being feathered; implying that feathers operate in a united but diverse pattern to enable a bird to fly. There is also an element of warmth and togetherness. Te Hiku and the Crown will join to celebrate Ngahuru.

Hei tā Peter-Lucas Jones Te Rūnanga Nui o Te Aupōuri Chair, “ka hoki ngā mahara ki ngā kōrero a tō tātou tūpuna whaea a Meringaroto. He rangatira te whakaaro nui kei muri i tāna whakatauākī, arā, aha te mea nui o tēnei ao, he tangata, he tangata, he tangata. Ko ō tātou mokopuna, taitamariki, mātua, kaumātua, me o tātou kuia ngā mea nui i roto i ēnei mahi, nō reira ka ū tonu tātou ki te kaupapa o te whakaaetanga nei, kia tupu matomato te kaupapa, hei oranga mō ngā whānau.”

Peter-Lucas Jones continues to say, “we’re reminded of the words of our ancestress Meri Ngaroto of Te Aupōuri. The concept behind her whakatauāki is chiefly, what is the greatest thing in this world – it is people, it is people, it is people. Our grandchildren, youth, parents, and elders are the most important focus in the work that we do, accordingly, we remain steadfast on the outcomes of the Accord to help grow the kaupapa, and to improve the livelihood of whānau.”

The Te Hiku o Te Ika Iwi - Crown Social Development and Wellbeing Accord is a strengths-based partnership that works on system transformation through a unique governance model. The model pools the collective power and influence of both partners to meet the needs and aspirations of all Te Hiku whānau – it is an enduring meaningful journey.

The sustainability of the Accord promotes intergenerational social and economic wellbeing for Te Hiku o Te Ika whānau. With an enduring approach, we not only address the fundamental causes of the problems, but we also work together as partners to improve services and find new ways of working to meet the needs of Te Hiku whānau - for us, this is system change.

Rhonda Kita, Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust Chairman inducted into Hall of Fame

"Trailblazer inducted into The New Zealand Hall of Fame for Women Entrepreneurs.

Instigated in 2012 by leading female business support organisation, Co.OfWomen, the eleventh annual ceremony sees Maxine Simmons CNZM, Frances Valintine CNZM and Rhonda Kite MNZM inducted into the New Zealand Hall of Fame for Women Entrepreneurs.

Entrepreneur and founder of Co.OfWomen, Tara Lorigan, says, "the Hall of Fame is a unique endeavor to champion female power by celebrating the significant business achievements and generosity of the country's most successful entrepreneurs and creates explicit, diverse examples encouraging women working on owning their successes."

"Commercial drive matched with innovation and a compelling desire to make a difference features strongly in female success. And this year's inductees are prominent examples. Our country and economy are all the better for their extensive mahi and kaupapa," said Tara.

The women inducted were selected in an open nomination process launched by Co.OfWomen, which commenced in Female Power Week in October 2021. Chosen for induction by a panel of their peers Chaired by Dr Lee Mathias ONZM and including Co.OfWomen founder Tara Lorigan MNZM, Sharon Hunter, Ranjna Patel ONZM, and Kiri Nathan MNZM.

These women were selected for their significant achievements in business, industry impact, support for other women, and their philanthropic activities.

Female-owned businesses make up more than 35% of New Zealand businesses, according to Statistics New Zealand, and the number of women opting for business ownership over employment continues to grow.

Co.OfWomen believes that the number of female-owned businesses continues to grow due to attrition from the corporate world, where many women find the limitations of employment inhibit the necessary flexibility to be supportive of family life".

"Top district court judge visits Kaitaia to consult on new justice model".

Top district court judge visits Kaitaia to consult on new justice model.

By Myjanne Jensen

Editor, Northland Age

Last week the top district judge in the land visited the Far North to talk with local iwi and community leaders about a visionary kaupapa (concept) to provide better outcomes for Māori in the criminal justice system.

Chief District Court Judge Heemi Taumaunu was welcomed with a pōwhiri to Awanui's Mahimaru Marae to discuss Te Ao Mārama - a new justice model which takes practices from specialist courts and applies them to the mainstream criminal system.

Te Ao Mārama was first introduced by Taumaunu in 2020 as part of his esteemed Norris Ward McKinnon Lecture at Waikato University.

The new model is expected to change the courtroom experience by inviting iwi and community groups into court, toning down formalities and identifying the underlying drivers of crime.

Advertise with NZME.

Te Ao Marāma will also adopt "plain" language and greater use of speakers through cultural reports that can be ordered under Section 27 of the Sentencing Act 2002.

Taumaunu explained that Te Ao Mārama was a judicially-led kaupapa that aimed to improve the experience for all people who participated in the court system, including victims and whānau.

"Te Ao Mārama will mean all people who come to court to seek justice will be seen, heard, understood and able to meaningfully participate," Taumaunu said.

"We're here today at the invitation of the Muriwhenua iwi leaders to speak about this kaupapa and how that might be applicable to the Kaitaia District Court.

"The long-term vision is to see a vibrant, multicultural society, where the two founding cultures of the Treaty of Waitangi come together in the best version of ourselves in the spirit of partnership, to create a justice system everyone can be proud of."

Te Rarawa iwi leader Haami Piripi attended the pōwhiri last Thursday to hear more about what the Te Ao Mārama model would mean for the people of Muriwhenua.

He said he was grateful for the judge's visit and hoped the new model would mean meaningful change for his people.

"We're working really hard in the family harm area at the moment, and that's really only the tip of the iceberg of what's going on out there," Piripi said.

Advertise with NZME.

"Maybe there are other things that can be included in this approach that resolves some of the angst of people involved in the justice system.

According to the Ministry of Justice's recent report, 'Highly Victimised People', Māori made up 26 per cent of the most highly victimised people, almost twice as high as their proportion of the New Zealand adult population.

The report comes off the back of the New Zealand Crime and Victims Survey released earlier this year, whereby 8,000 New Zealanders aged over 15 were interviewed in March-October 2018 about their experience of crime.

The survey was focused on four per cent of New Zealand adults who experienced 47 per cent of all crime incidents that occurred in the 12 months prior to the interview.

Highly victimised people are those who have experienced four or more criminal incidents within a 12-month period.

Māori were significantly over-represented in the highly victimised four per cent compared to other ethnic groups.

Taumaumu said while there had been efforts to respond to calls for systemic change in the past, Te Ao Mārama would be a comprehensive response for the District Court and would include approaches that were unique to each community.

He said the District Court would partner with iwi and engage with local communities to co-design and deliver services to meet each community's diverse needs.

Te Ao Mārama was initially rolled out in the Hamilton and Gisborne courts and is set to be implemented at all District Courts across Aotearoa New Zealand.

It is expected that Te Ao Mārama will be announced at Kaitaia District Court in the coming weeks.

Climate Change Engagement.

"Ministry for the Environment's climate change work programme is focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adapting to a changing climate. Ministry for the Environment are holding workshops to engage with Māori on climate change adaptation and the distinct issues this raises for Māori in relation to natural resources, the environment, and Māori land".

Climate Adaptation Act

This is one of three new acts to be created as part of the resource management system reform and is a key part of delivery of the National Adaptation Plan.

The Act will seek to address the complex legal and technical issues associated with managed retreat and funding and financing adaptation.

Managed retreat is an adaptive approach to risk reduction that enables people to strategically relocate assets, activities, and cultural sites of significance (where possible) away from hazardous locations.

A new managed retreat system will raise a distinct set of issues for Māori in relation to natural resources, the environment, and Māori land.

The Ministry would like to start having early conversations with Māori to help inform policy development and the design of the Climate Adaptation Act.

Ngā Mihi,

Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust

Unprecedented

Wed, 22 Dec 2021 06:38:55 GMT

Unprecedented. This is the kupu that has been traipsing circles through my mind since the government announced the lifting of the border that has been surrounding Auckland for what seems like aeons.

For us in Te Hiku ō Te Ika, the act of holding our breath has become an art form. We have felt the longing for our loved ones barricaded in by our mutual enemy. Just like the yearning of Ranginui for his whaiāipō Papatūānuku, we have shed tears. We have felt the deep absence in each other’s lives.

And now, our long-awaited reunion is nigh.

Whiria Te Muka is the Te Hiku Iwi-NZ Police partnership that works to reduce and prevent whānau harm and uplift Mana Tangata for our people in Te Hiku ō Te Ika. We work with whānau who have experienced reported and unreported whānau harm, either directly to nurture positive change or on the other end of the spectrum to influence systems change at scale.

We understand how the complex dynamics and layers of whakapapa embedded within whānau relationships can spill over into family violence. But we also know that, like one of our famous waves up here in the North, the moment that it comes crashing down into chaos can be triggered by the smallest of incidents.

Knowing this, and understanding that emotions are likely to be heightened during this most unprecedented ‘Raumati-Summer of Reunions’, there are proactive things we can do to make sure that we all have a great time.

If you’re expecting whānau to come up, make sure they’re a kōhā not a hōhā. Don’t be whakamā to ask them to chip in on the kai, on the water, on the power. Because once those bills come rolling in from February, some of us will be feeling the pinch of financial stress.

Also, remember that Christmas time is about your presence and not your presents. Getting yourself into debt or booking up to make sure that the bottom of your Christmas tree is loaded does not make for a happy Christmas. The greatest gift we can give to each other is our time.

This is particularly true for our kaumātua who can feel isolated at this time of the year, as nostalgia kicks in and memories of loved ones passed draw close. Make sure you check in with your kaumātua to ensure that they feel the aroha this year too.

And of course, some of us will be celebrating our catch-ups with alcohol. This is a reality. But, be mindful that alcohol remains our number one trigger of whānau harm. So, let’s just make sure that we’re proactive about it, that we’re watching how much we’re drinking, how we’re drinking and that our tamariki are safe at all times.

Other than that, us hau kāinga here are ready for the unprecedented. We’re ready to put our arms around our loved ones and welcome them home.

Kia mau ki te tokanga nui a noho. There is no place like home.

Whiria Te Muka investment in whānau harm reduction and prevention pays off four-fold

Sun, 12 Dec 2021 23:37:53 GMT

DATE: Friday December 10 2021

MEDIA RELEASE: For immediate release

Whiria Te Muka investment in whānau harm reduction and prevention pays off four-fold

Almost four years into the work and the Crown-Te Hiku Iwi investment in reducing and preventing whānau harm in Te Hiku is firmly in the green.

A recent Social Return on Investment (SROI) analysis has concluded that for every $1 invested in Whiria Te Muka, there is a $4.07 return. The findings have also affirmed that every incident of reported whānau harm in Te Hiku costs $61,627 to stakeholders.

Whiria Te Muka is the NZ Police-Te Hiku Iwi partnership that was launched in 2017 to support whānau experiencing harm to move towards Mana Tangata.

The analysis was completed by Business and Economic and Research Limited (BERL) and evaluated the long-term outcomes of Whiria Te Muka, including the reduction and prevention of whānau harm, a strong Crown-Iwi partnership and Mana Tangata or Mana Whānui.

Whiria Te Muka worked on 976 reported incidents in 2018, 1390 in 2019, 1631 in 2020 and 975 to August 31 this year. Although reported family harm has increased, 896 whānau have moved from high to low risk.

“We have seen more whānau building confidence to ring 111 before the harm escalates. We expect numbers of whānau harm will continue to rise as our communities build more trust in NZ Police and the 111 system,” says Whiria Te Muka Iwi Co-Director Callie Corrigan.

Northland Police District Commander Superintendent Tony Hill agrees that the report demonstrates that the work that Whiria Te Muka is doing is having a significant impact on whānau harm in Te Hiku.

“Whilst the return on investment is extremely good, what is potentially equally as important is what we’re hearing from whānau who have been through family harm where Whiria Te Muka have assisted their transition into a place of safety. For many they have lived with family harm in their household for many years, and finally they are getting the resources and ability to be able to manage their lives in the absence of harm,” he says.

Te Rarawa Chairman and Whiria Te Muka Leader Haami Piripi says the opportunities for iwi development and a prevention focus have emerged as opportunities.

“This encourages more participation by another genre of stakeholders who can make a tremendous difference to the current scenario of reactionary responses by going back down the pipeline to cognitive and behavioural understanding about prevention,” he says.

He adds that Te Hiku Iwi need to better understand the nature of whānau harm in Far North communities and the Whiria Te Muka evaluation has provided indicators for how well it is doing and how far there is to go.

“This is so cutting edge from my point of view as a social scientist and I think it’s great. But I’m also an an Iwi leader with responsibilities and obligations to love and protect every one of them. We’ve all got a story about whānau harm and it just spreads insidiously right through the community. Ending violence in our home is what drives me,” he says.

The report also looked at how the Crown-Iwi partnership is working by rating a number of critical success factors. Overall, the report concluded that Whiria Te Muka is in a unique and strong position to affect systemic change and better support people experiencing whānau harm in Te Hiku.

Callie says the BERL result provides Whiria Te Muka with a whāriki or foundation to start measuring the strength of partnership.

“Partnership is hard. You don’t just have a strong relationship overnight. But this helps us understand the areas we’re doing really well in, while also highlighting the areas we need to improve upon. We look forward to identifying how we can start strengthening those,” she says.

The report was completed by analysing interviews with frontline Iwi and Police staff and management, as well as reviewing the unique quantitative and qualitative data that is held by Whiria Te Muka.

BERL chief economist Hillmarè Schulze says a SROI model is a method for measuring values that are not traditionally reflected in a financial statement – including cultural, social, economic and environmental values.

“It can identify how effectively a programme uses its capital and other resources to create value for the community. The overall objective of an SROI analysis is to measure social return on investment by documenting and evaluating the impacts of social change,” she says.

However, Hillmarè adds that Whiria Te Muka cannot take credit for all of the change in whānau lives.

“We know the Whiria Te Muka team is amazing, but they can’t claim to be responsible for all the impact. We know that there is a whole community of other agencies looking to reduce whānau harm. Collectively, the agencies contribute to reducing whānau harm,” she says.

Callie says the report starts to provide Whiria Te Muka with the financial benefit of partnership and the financial value of cultural capital, which is often undermined in system change.

Alcohol consumption leading contributor to family violence in Te Hiku during Level 4 lockdown

Fri, 03 Sep 2021 03:51:55 GMT

MEDIA RELEASE: SEPTEMBER 3 2021

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Alcohol consumption leading contributor to family violence in Te Hiku during Level 4 lockdown

Harmful alcohol consumption continues to be the leading trigger of reported family violence in Te Hiku since Level 4 lockdown.

From August 18 to August 31, there were 62 reported incidents of whānau harm reported through 111 that came through Whiria Te Muka. Whiria Te Muka is a Te Hiku Iwi-NZ Police partnership that works to prevent and reduce family violence in Te Hiku while striving for Mana Tangata.

Out of those 62 incidents, 18 were triggered by harmful alcohol consumption. Out of those 18 incidents, eight were triaged as high risk according to the measure used by frontline police at the time of reporting the incident.

High triage family incidents can include threats of serious harm, sexual violence, strangulation, people wanted for arrest or arrested, serious psychological harm, repeat reported incidents, serious physical injuries, weapons and/or fear for personal safety.

Alcohol Prevention Harm Officer Constable Rasau Kalivati believes the sale of alcohol hasn’t been restricted as much this lockdown as compared to last lockdown.

"We know alcohol is a factor that exacerbates family harm. Alert level restrictions can add pressure to families, which in turn can prompt people to drink more alcohol and potentially hurt those close to them. Police are here to help, no matter the alert level. If you are in danger or fear for your safety, dial 111,” he says.

There are 24 premises in Te Hiku that hold current off-licences issued by the Far North District Council. Of those, three are now selling alcohol remotely online using contactless delivery, and a further eight are continuing to sell alcohol as part of their usual grocery trade.

Te Hiku Iwi Development CEO Carol Berghan says: “The fact that the sale of alcohol remotely is permitted by the Far North District Council without restrictions is hugely concerning to our iwi. What we are now seeing as a result are unacceptable and preventable reports of family violence.”

Te Rarawa chairman Haami Piripi says the nature of social drinking during periods of lockdown changes drastically due to the restrictions to personal movement and what he describes as cabin fever.

“It’s an uncertain time. There are so many conspiracy theories and so much misinformation out there, and the fact is that the use of alcohol is predictable because it’s the path of least resistance. I think people are probably thinking it’s a bit of a holiday, and what do you do on a Friday or Saturday? It’s a similar sort of thing, but it only brings further pressure and financial burdens,” he says.

Although a believer in moderation, he says Māori in particular have an opportunity to exercise abstinence from heavy drinking during lockdown.

“To have the mana to be able to say ‘no’? There’s mana right there. That in itself is the sort of thing that Māori men in particular need to have in our lives, otherwise we don’t feel fulfilled. Kua nawhe. That’s enough,” he says.

Aside from lockdown periods, Whiria Te Muka data shows that alcohol is usually the largest recorded trigger of family violence. In the six months between Jan 1 and Jun 30 2020, it attributed to the 20% of all reported whānau harm in that time.

Only 24% of all family violence is reported via 111.

Whiria Te Muka - Help from family violence

Wed, 25 Aug 2021 02:56:17 GMT

MEDIA RELEASE: August 24 2021

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Reach out for help from family violence from the safety of your bubble

Te Hiku whānau who are experiencing family violence in their bubble during COVID-19 Level 4 lockdown can still reach out for immediate help online with their safety and confidentiality safeguarded.

When phoning 111 isn’t an option for women and people who identify as women requiring help in time of family violence crises, Whiria Te Muka is urging them to access help online via the Shielded Site icon.

The Shielded Site icon is on major sites across Aotearoa-New Zealand, normally located at the bottom of the web page.

A place of refuge, the icon allows kaimamae, or people who receive family violence, to request support without leaving a digital footprint.

Designed by NZ Women’s Refuge, the icon is a tool for women and people who identify as women who are experiencing whānau harm to reach out for help, without fear of it showing up in their browser history or an abusive partner seeing it. It is a simple icon that can sit on any website and launch a powerful resource to help reduce and prevent family violence.

When users click the icon, they are taken to a shielded portal through which they will be put in contact with Women’s Refuge. There, they can find out how to make a plan to get out of a dangerous situation, learn how to stay safe online and get answers to questions about what comes after they have reached out for help.

Websites that currently support the Shielded Site icon include Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust, Women’s Refuge New Zealand, The Warehouse, Countdown Supermarkets, NZ Post, Inland Revenue NZ and the Ministry of Social Development NZ.

More information is located at https://shielded.co.nz .

Whiria Te Muka is a partnership initiative between the NZ Police and Te Hiku Iwi that aims to reduce and prevent family violence in Te Hiku while striving for mana tangata.

In the meantime, Te Hiku whānau experiencing family violence can still access support via the following numbers:

· If it is an emergency and the situation requires immediate assistance, phone 111 .

· NZ WOMEN’S REFUGE (0800 733 843 ): Provides information, support and advice for women experiencing family violence, as well as help in a crisis.

· HEY BRO ( 0800 439 276 ) - 24hour, 7-day support line for men who feel they’re going to harm a whānau member or loved one.

· SHINE ( 0508 744 633 ) - Offers helpline, advocacy, refuges, Kidshine and safety programmes.

· LIFELINE ( 0800 543 354 ) - 24-hour, 7-day confidential support by qualified counsellors and trained volunteers.

The Year in Review: A Word from our CEO, Carol Berghan

chalachase@gmail.com (Chala Chase) — Thu, 31 Dec 2020 12:55:38 GMT

As the final report for 2020, we leave this year on a high.

A global pandemic interrupted all conventional action known to us… and as an organisation we met it head on and went into action. We seriously worked hard over this period and I acknowledge our staff—every day we were presented with new challenges. Life flipped upside down for everyone, most of us managed well and accolades to the parents and caregivers that also became schoolteachers. Our whānaungatanga though won the day; our sense of duty and belonging to each other made every extraordinary challenge surmountable in Te Hiku. Te Hiku is a unique, beautiful place to live—we are blessed to belong to this strong proud region.

Covid-19 shows us that together “we can”, that we can set aside our differences, that the system itself—when pushed to deliver on the needs of the whānau, delivered! If shaping our future is rooted in our experiences, then the lessons learned from 2020 is… to repeat again… Covid-19 shows us that together “we can” and when push comes to shove, the system can deliver to the needs of our whānau.

It is within your realm of thinking to leapfrog beyond the social and economic setbacks to Te Hiku whānau experienced pre coronavirus; is it plausible to think that an intended outcome of this virus is to position our whānau in a better, healthier, more inclusive environment? Big questions and I know the answer to be “yes”.

Over Covid, the THIDT performed well as an employer. Our cleaner became our chief happiness officer and made small gifts for every staff member (Police staff included). The morning zooms for karakia became this beautiful bonding exercise, having trustees and our Chair join these sessions amplified our whanaungatanga. The rapid intel that we could muster overnight and speedily pass on to groups like TKOT re: the whānau harm insights, the Mayors forum with business insights, the CEs in Wellington with systems insights were immediately actioned. If only our dismal statistics in unemployment, bad health, poor education and increased crime received the same intensity for change rather than making headline news?

So, my message is to keep going. As systems activists or system advocates (whichever appeals more) the Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust has a unique role to play in community-led change. Our role is to partner with the Government to fix long standing faults in the system. It is a big role. It is a unique role. Commonly, in regional areas, community providers/groups are contracted and paid to achieve the outcomes the Government prioritise. We are different. In fact, we are the opposite to these ‘norms’. Our chief role is to work together with decision makers in key Government positions to get better results and results our whānau and communities prioritise. Thanks to Treaty settlements, it is no longer a one-way road, however, change is a long, long marathon”.

Te Hiku: A Word about Covid-19

chalachase@gmail.com (Chala Chase) — Thu, 31 Dec 2020 12:55:38 GMT

Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust Coronavirus Staff Safety Plan

He Taonga Nui Te Tūpato

Tēnā koutou katoa,

At Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust we are mindful of the impact that the Coronavirus [ COVID-19] will be having on all our whānau, marae, hapū and communities. Despite all of the uncertainty one thing is certain, we are all going to be impacted significantly over the next few years so we need to be mindful and conscious of our practice.

Here is our advice for coping with the threat – some of this information is taken from the latest notices supplied by the Northland District Health Board.

As you’ll all realise, the situation is very fast moving and fluid. It is sensible to look at what has happened in some of the worst affected countries and take precautions to minimise the effects of the virus infecting our communities. We are asking that everyone does all that we can to collectively reduce rates of infection. Prevention is the best thing that we can do in the next couple of weeks and months. Prepare but do not panic.

As you may already know, some straightforward tried and true strategies relating to personal hygiene are very important. Please remember -

Hand hygiene is important
Covering your mouth when you sneeze with your arm/elbow
Ensuring you keep social distance

Symptoms

If you or your whānau have any of the following symptoms, please call Healthline on 0800 358 5453 immediately and contact your line manager:

Cough
High temperature (at least 38°C)
Shortness of breath

Having these symptoms doesn’t mean you have the virus, but if you do display these signs please self-isolate by staying at home, contact the Healthline. All people with symptoms should work from home as much as is possible.

A reminder to ourselves on how Coronavirus or COVID-19 spreads

COVID-19, like the flu, can be spread from person to person. When a person who has COVID-19 coughs, sneezes or talks, they may spread droplets containing the virus a short distance, which quickly settle on surrounding surfaces.
You may get infected by the virus if you touch those surfaces or objects and then touch your mouth, nose or eyes.
That’s why it’s really important to use good hygiene, regularly wash and thoroughly dry your hands, and use good cough etiquette.

Preventing its Spread

Cough or sneeze into your elbow or by covering your mouth and nose with tissues.
Put used tissues in the bin or a bag immediately.
Wash your hands with soap and water often (for at least 20 seconds).
Try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean.
Avoid personal contact, such as kissing, sharing cups or food with sick people.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects, such as doorknobs and tabletops.
Stay home if you feel unwell.
Good nutrition and rest will assist with resilience to infection.
Call Healthline on 0800 358 5453 if you have any symptoms or have been in close contact with someone confirmed with COVID-19.

Most importantly this virus is unprecedented: It is okay to not be okay

Impacts on tikanga practices

It’s for each marae and hapū to decide and uphold their tikanga. THIDT staff have adopted a ‘personal rahui’ tikanga, especially in the workplace during hui, pōwhiri etc. This means refraining from:

Hongi
Kihikihi
Hariru
Awhiawhi

Whānau Gatherings – Hura Kohatu/ Tangi/ Mārena/ other events

First and foremost, if whānau members are unwell, they should stay away from events.
Secondly, Marae may need to alter pōwhiri by suspending normal tikanga/ kawa.
We recommend serious consideration be given to, limiting or stopping hariru, hongi and kihikihi. These variations will help to prevent the movement of this illness through our communities.
When it comes to the above points, Koroheke/Kuia may choose to temporarily dispense with selected parts of tikanga. The temporary suspension of tikanga has happened previously.
Regarding Tangihanga. Consider having the coffin closed to prevent droplets landing on cloth and then spreading the illness.
Please disinfect all surfaces regularly (but not the tūpāpaku).
As per the Ministry of Health advice, if you are unable to use liquid sanitizers, washing hands with soap and water for 20 seconds or more is an effective way to maintain hygiene.
Also limiting and/or stopping these events may have to be considered on a case by case basis and subject to what comes out nationally. As the Prime Minister has given notice about large gatherings involving more than 500 people, we recommend large hui be postponed as a precaution.

Some ideas that others are using and that could be discussed with whanau and marae, koroheke/kuia and ngā Minita ō ngā Hāhī are as follows:

Keeping hand sanitiser at gateways to marae, churches and urupā.

Placing panui at the gate or in the Marae notifying that due to Covid-19 normal tikanga of hongi, kihi and/or awhiawhi are not being done.
Placing pānui at the gate or in the Marae notifying that due to Covid-19 there is a closed rather than an open coffin.
Kaikorero should mention these tikanga changes during mihimihi.
The Northland District Health Board is establishing a Northland Incident Management Team (IMT). They will be part of a plan to assist Primary Care organisations to ensure we can cope with the numbers of community tests required, and where possible ensure that our Emergency Departments and General Practices are not swamped. The Incident Management Team and NDHB will be establishing up to 8 Community Based Testing Centres around Northland and these should be operational by Wednesday.

The Symptoms again.

If you or your whānau have any of the following symptoms, please call Healthline on 0800 358 5453 immediately and contact your line manager:

Cough
High temperature (at least 38°C)
Shortness of breath

Having these symptoms doesn’t mean you have the virus, but if you do display these signs please self-isolate by staying at home and work from home as much as is possible.

Hygiene again

Follow these basic principles:

Wash hands thoroughly; using soap and water is best
Use hand sanitiser or antiseptic wipes when necessary
Ensure that all ‘high touch’ surfaces are cleaned appropriately.
Get influenza injections when they are available next month.

Here are some other guidelines:

Seek information updates at specific times during the day once or twice. The sudden and near-constant stream of news reports can make people worried.
Feeling stressed is an experience that you and many of your whanau are likely going through. It is normal to be feeling this way in the current situation.
Managing your stress/psychosocial wellbeing during this time is as important as managing your physical health.
Take care of your basic needs and ensure rest and respite when possible, eat sufficient and healthy food, engage in physical activity, and stay in contact with family and friends.
This is an unprecedented scenario, don't try to learn new strategies, use the ones that you have used in the past to manage times of stress.
This is likely to be a marathon - pace yourself and your whānau
Avoid using unhelpful coping strategies such as tobacco, alcohol or other drugs.
Some people may unfortunately experience avoidance by their family or community due to stigma or fear. If possible, staying connected with your loved ones including through digital methods is one way to maintain contact. Turn to your whānau for social support - your relations and friends may be having similar experiences to you.
Consider the steady stockpiling of dry rations i.e. salt, sugar, flour, tea.
Purchase some painkillers like Panadol.
Airports and public transport areas are places of high risk. Limit your visits to these venues.
Consider having influenza injections when they are available next month.
