Getting your community and hapū online
Honoa te hapori me te hapū ki te ipurangi
Getting your community and hapū online
This resource is for iwi, hapū and communities wanting to connect with their people, their country and the world by becoming more digitally literate.
The resource includes case studies of successful digital initiatives, guidelines on how to set up a range of digital projects, and advice on how to manage a digital project.
Many hapū, iwi and communities have begun to think about how they can use information and communications technology (ICT) to improve people’s circumstances, and some have already developed successful digital initiatives.
The Department of Internal Affairs has drawn on the experience of groups at all ends of the ICT journey to develop this resource. We would particularly like to acknowledge the generous contribution of time and ideas from the Tūhoe Education Authority and people from Ngāti Apa, Ngātiwai Trust, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāi Tahu.
Hard copies of this resource will be available from your regional Department of Internal Affairs office.
