What we're up to
Kai security & redistribution
July 2024
We're working alongside a very cool rangatahi from Mana College, supporting her to lead an initiative enabling communities and cafes to redistribute their excess kai to services like the Ngāti Toa social supermarket and Kaibosh. We're investigating and designing how we can use Koha Tree to help do this to uplift the mana and food security within our communities. Pirihira is designing and running the pilot in Kapiti and Porirua - we'll look at expanding it beyond there after the pilot.The learning experience for the rangatahi is focused on service design, user research, and project coordination. As always, we're working on these in a values-based and service-based context, emphasizing how they're transferrable in whatever contexts she wants to apply them to later.
Birthday presents for tamariki
July 2024
Acting on feedback we received through Shoebox Christmas - this kaupapa is about helping the community provide koha for tamariki being cared for by social services on their birthdays.Similar to the kai security project, this is an exercise in learning for our rangatahi - focusing on kaupapa and service design, user research, as well as some digital product leadership too (the process of discovering what's needed, and then coordinating the build of the website.
We've partnered with Shoebox Christmas to design and deliver mātauranga Māori based learning as we coach young leaders to deliver the Shoebox Christmas kaupapa. We do this to remind our young people of their potential through applied leadership of community projects.
Values Based Leadership
Learn values-based-leadership fundamentals in a tutored course facilitated by Pera Barrett through Te Wānanga o Raukawa.
