< Back Lloyd (Doc) Martin Code of Ethics Facilitator Now based in the Hawkes Bay, I provide supervision and facilitate workshops around the motu in ethics and youth development for youth workers, community educators, and anyone whose mahi impacts young people. My special interest is the intersection between youth development and education, how these are affected by trauma, and what it takes to re-engage youth. I have recently completed a doctorate which involved listening to young people’s experiences of AE and of the people who work with them in those settings. I use practical and interactive approaches in my teaching, and am comfortable working within te ao Māori contexts. More info at my website: https://www.newseason.nz Lloyd@newseason.nz

< Back Talei Bryant Mana Taiohi Facilitator I have been involved in youth development and youth work since 2018 since attending festival for the future Where I was inspired to start my own youth-led organisation called the Find Your Fish Movement. The aim of this movement is to help young people dive deep into ko wai au and find their passion and turn it into their profession. Over the years I have worked in numerous roles relating to rangatahi development. In 2023 I was the Campaign Lead for Youth Week and absolutely loved being able to work with Rangatahi across the motu and see all the amazing events that were happening. I currently work at Whakatane High School as the Attendance Coordinator Where my team and I cover the 20 schools in our regions. I have been facilitating Mana Taiohi workshops since 2020 and have loved meeting different people from different spaces who all want to support and uplift rangatahi. My facilitator style is full of energy, laughs and making sure everyone is engaged and understands the content. I like to do this wananga style and by doing activities that involve group work, skits and some really cool activities. I love that I get to share Mana Taiohi with the world! talei.bryant@whs.co.nz
