Karanga Aotearoa Repatriation Programme
Ko tā NSTP he whakapakari i te rāngai muhiama o Aotearoa, i ngā hapori, i ngā iwi, i ngā hapū me ngā marae mā te āwhina ā-ringa, ā-rautaki hoki. Mā te whakangungu, mā te hanga rauemi, mā te pūtea taunaki, mā te tohutohu, mā te hui tahi, mā te wānanga tahi e tutuki ai tēnei whāinga matua.
He kōrero anō mō National Services Te Paerangi
Mā te kaupapa nei e āhei ai tēnā me tēnā iwi te whakaatu mai ai i ā rātou taonga, i ā rātou kōrero ki te motu. Koia tētahi ara e tutuki ai te mana taonga – kia kitea ngā taonga, kia whāwhāngia, kia kōrerohia ngā taonga e ō rātou uri, otirā, kia tūhonohono te iwi ki āna taonga. Koia te whāriki o te kaitiakitanga a ngā taonga e mau nei ki Te Papa Tongarewa.
Ka mahi ngātahi tētahi iwi me Te Papa Tongarewa ki te waihanga i tōna ake whakaaturanga. Mai i te whakatuwheratanga ki tōna whakakapinga, ka noho te tokorua kaumātua nō taua iwi ki Te Papa, hei kaitiaki, hei pou here tikanga, hei manaaki i tōna kawa ki runga o Rongomaraeroa.
Ko te kaupapa a Karanga Aotearoa he whakahoki i ngā kōiwi tūpuna Māori, i ngā kōimi tangata Moriori mai i rāwāhi ki ō rātou nā iwi ki Aotearoa. Ka riro mā Te Papa tēnei kaupapa e kawe mā te Kāwanatanga o Aotearoa. Ka mahi ngātahi mātou ko ngā iwi hei whakatutuki i tēnei kaupapa nui whakaharahara.
