Marae DIY Waikari Marae, Tauranga
A marae facing climate change: While the people of Ngāti Tapu enjoy spectacular views from their peninsula Marae, they also face the threat of climate change to their land. Already their urupā is eroding, along with rubbish from a previous landfill, into the ocean. The DIY will bring these elements into sharp focus. Using a barge, they’ll remove rubbish from the banks and plant natives with root systems to slow erosion. Their marae buildings will also receive a radical transformation; the most dramatic change will be opening the Wharekai to the stunning views.
This season Marae DIY has a fresh focus on kaitiakitanga. Transforming marae in 4 days and extending beyond the whare to the whenua.
