< Back Wānanga Whakarongo Cultural Puāwai | Hauora Aotearoa Target Age: 12-24 Address: When: 23 May 2026 4:00 pm puaawai@hauoraaotearoa.com Venue TBC Puāwai project is celebrating Youth Week in 2026 by holding Wānanga Whakarongo, an event for rangatahi with no specific outcome. The event’s aim is to provide a space where rangatahi can learn from each other, discuss, reflect and digest their thoughts, experiences and perspectives on Mental Health and Hauora. The event is self guided, with those attending able to engage as they wish. The only take away being whatever they choose to take with them. We wanted to run this event and use this space to take some pressure off, noticing a lot of rangatahi events and discussions are often for an outcome - tickbox, policy or otherwise. This space is just for rangatahi to exist in. Previous Next
