Te ao Māori perspective
The Water Services Authority - Taumata Arowai operates from a te ao Māori perspective aspiring to higher outcomes for water and people in Aotearoa. We take our lead from Te Tiriti o Waitangi and are guided by the principles of Te Mana o te Wai.
Te Mana o te Wai
Ko te tiaki i te wai he rite ki te tiaki i te tangata
Looking after the water is looking after the people
