Project Summary Te Morehu Whenua: Moutoa Island Restoration Project

Moutoa Island Restoration Project has been led by Te Morehu Whenua, a tamariki and rangatahi-led environmentalist group, established by Ngāti Ruaka, hapū of Rānana, Whanganui River, in 2019.

The main query driving the Moutoa Island Restoration Project’s endeavours was centred around the adaptability of Tupua Te Kawa and He Toi Taiao frameworks in addressing the uncertainties arising from climate extremes and their effects on Moutoa Island. These frameworks held significance in understanding the impacts of climate variations on this culturally significant wāhi tapu.
