        Our Te Tiriti Journey

        We acknowledge tino rangatiratanga as a form of pre-existing authority re-affirmed to Tangata Whenua in Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

        Here at InsideOUT, we are committed to honouring and upholding our Te Tiriti responsibilities across all levels of our organisation. In light of this, we are journeying towards becoming a Te Tiriti Based Organisation, guided by our Te Tiriti Framework.

        As we continue to advance this haerenga, we work towards embedding Te Tiriti in everything we do: from our strategic planning, systems and structures, right through to our organisational culture as the foundation of all our mahi.
