A NEW STRATEGY This strategy represents a new direction and a new approach. More importantly, it reflects what we heard from iwi on our haerenga around the motu in 2021. Some of the key kōrero we heard from iwi included: •
Help build iwi capability to implement their responsibilities as Mandated Iwi Organisations
•
Te Ohu Kaimoana needs to be assisting and working more proactively in customary fishing
•
Iwi commended the work of Te Ohu Kaimoana in regards to policy mahi, but wanted Te Ohu Kaimoana to be more directive and have recommendations in our papers, rather than iwi having to apply a lot of resource to responses that affecting fishing and the marine environment
•
Iwi want us to do the work but do it differently
•
Iwi want us to support them to undertake research, to have more information and data that helps them monitor their environment and support innovation. Importantly, they want research that is Māori centric and supports a Māori worldview first and foremost
•
Aquaculture is an opportunity that iwi care about and want Te Ohu Kaimoana to support them in those aspirations
•
Iwi want Te Ohu Kaimoana to be more visible and accessible on a regular basis
•
Iwi want the support of Te Ohu Kaimoana to develop a policy and positions based on a Māori world view for oceans, fishing and the marine environment that they could adopt and sign up to
•
Iwi support Te Ohu Kaimoana working closely with the rest of the Kahui.
This kōrero highlights that everything we do as Te Ohu Kaimoana should add value or provide impact for iwi.

This approach represents new thinking. We are not just going to do work because we have always done it, we will undertake work because we have thought hard about the programme and we can show that those resources will be deployed to add value for iwi. This was the biggest missing ingredient in driving our work programme forward. Our Rima Tau Rautaki sets out our new vision, our values and our pou arataki. It is our first step in a new direction — to show where we want to go, how we are going to get there and what we need to focus on to achieve these goals. At the end of the next five years, we want to be able to look back and see that we have changed the space we work in, created a difference and used our resources to ensure that iwi are at the heart of everything that we do. Noho ora mai rā,
Rangimarie Hunia Chair Te Ohu Kaimoana

NGĀ POU ARATAKI These pou are our strategic priorities. We developed these in response to kōrero with iwi across the motu. Together, they address feedback, capture hopes and reflect aspirations for the way that we can work to support iwi and their whānau. Any work we do will support us to reach towards these outcomes. From the 2021/22 financial year, we will be reporting our work programmes against the measures in these pou — the Annual Plan 2021/22 will outline the work programmes and Quarterly Reports will track our progress in further detail.

This Pou represents a commitment to change. That Te Ohu Kaimoana will further develop Te Hā o Tangaroa as the foundation for our policy advice and create a Māori narrative for our worldview in oceans. We will draw on mātauranga Māori and undertake policy mahi that serves this pou and our ability to share a Māori perspective that is uniquely our own – driven by our own agenda, rather than the Crown’s.
Pou Tuarua ensures that we are supporting iwi to build capability in delivering on their accountabilities and responsibilities for fisheries and wider marine interests while ensuring Tangaroa can provide for their people and future generations. We will do that by both creating resources to share our policy knowledge with iwi and continue to advocate on behalf of iwi. Every programme we work on has a commitment to iwi and supporting their aspirations.

Research and innovation is an area we are required to invest and create action but we have never done that outwardly nor worked on this with great purpose. This Pou will ensure that we are working on and in research. At the outset, this will be with partners until we are clear about what role Te Ohu Kaimoana could have in working for iwi in the research arena.
The greatest part of our purpose is to protect the Deed of Settlement. This Pou helps us ensure our priorities are focused on outcomes that deliver positive results for iwi.
