Lisa | Maori Language Moment 2021

I work for Australian government, although in NZ at the moment. I have been commencing my meetings this week with, "Kia Ora all, it is Maori language week here in NZ so I’d like to begin today by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of all the lands on which we meet today (both in Aus and here in NZ), and pay my respects to their Elders past and present. I extend that respect to Maori, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples here today."
