The “Mātauranga Kai” project aims to gather pūrākau (stories) about kai Māori (food), from elders knowledge holders who grew up in provincial towns in Te Tai Tokerau, Taranaki,Tairawhiti and Te Tauihu rohe. From these pūrākau we hope to find new ways to inspire rangatahi (youth) and pakeke (adults) about healthier and more sustainable ways of eating that connect us back to the traditional Māori world. The panel also discusses the state of Māori kai in Aotearoa at the moment and the role of Māori chefs in promoting and safeguarding it.
