Te Mauri o Ōkāreka | Lake Ōkāreka – A Highlight Story

Nov 4, 2022 | Environment, Lakes

Ko Te Mauri o Ōkāreka tētahi mahinga nui hei ngaki ake i ngā otaota kei Ōkāreka.

I te tīmatatanga o te tau, ka kite atu i te whakahekenga o ngā otaota ki te roto o Ōkāreka.

I kōrero mātou ki a Rangitihi Pene, nānā rā te kōrero mō te maurī o Ōkāreka, arā ki ngā kōrero tuku iho, ngā whakapapa, ka mutu, he aha rā te ngako o tēnei whāinga ki te iwi, ki te hapori me te taiao hoki.

Te Mauri o Ōkāreka is about the collaborative efforts being made to clear invasive water weeds from Ōkāreka.

Earlier this year, pre-spray assessment results detected no sign of invasive water weeds in Lake Ōkāreka.

We speak to Rangitihi Pene, who walks us through Te Mauri o Ōkāreka; the kōrero tuku iho, whakapapa and what this progressive win means for iwi, community and the environment from a Te Ao Māori world view.
