Kainga Tahi, Kainga Rua
Kainga Tahi, Kainga Rua surveys the many ways Maori experience home and housing across Aotearoa New Zealand. These accounts range from the broader factors shaping Maori housing aspirations through to the experiences of whanau, hapu and iwi that connect to specific sites and locations.
Kainga Tahi, Kainga Rua surveys the many ways whanau, hapu and iwi experience housing and home across Aotearoa New Zealand. Arriving at a time of promise and change for Maori housing, these stories of home and belonging provide inspiration for the future.
Narratives of resilience open the book, showing how the broad currents of colonisation, social and economic history, and land and law changes have affected housing through time. Personal, heartfelt discussions of the relationships between housing, home and identity highlight contemporary challenges.
A rich set of papakainga housing solutions, accompanied by illustrations, reveals new pathways ahead. Documenting these contemporary Maori housing narratives in their rural, urban and big-city contexts offers a sweeping overview of what 'home' can mean for tangata whenua in the twenty-first century.
