TANGATA TIRITI - TREATY PEOPLE

An interactive workbook for migrant communities is available at ARMS now!

The development of Tangata Tiriti - Treaty People was a collaborative project lead by the Treaty Education Group working with the Auckland Regional Migrant Services (ARMS) , Auckland Workers Education Association (AWEA), the Human Rights Commission (HRC) and the Refugee Council of New Zealand.

For many years, migrants to New Zealand have indicated strong interest in understanding more about the unique history and bicultural foundations of Aotearoa-New Zealand. As a result, this informative and interactive resource has been developed for use with and by migrant communities in any part of Aotearoa.

The resource has simple and accurate information about the Treaty of Waitangi and includes many interactive activities that are best used in a group or workshop setting. It has been written in a way that it will be particularly suitable for facilitators and teachers to use with community groups or ESOL classes. It can be used with new settlers for whom English is a relatively new language and also with any non Maori who wants a basic understanding of the Treaty.

The inaugural Treaty workshop was held in March this year and was facilitated by experienced and knowledgeable Treaty Education Workers. It was so successful that ARMS held a second one-day workshop in May and around 20 people from the wider community participated.

Auckland Regional Migrant Services (ARMS) is the main distributor. For a copy of the resource, please download the order form here, or contact reception on (09) 625 2440 email: reception@arms-mrc.org.nz

If you or your groups are interested in having a one-hour orientation session, a full day workshop, or attending a Trainings for Facilitators, please contact reception on (09) 625 2440 email: reception@arms-mrc.org.nz
