WHĀNAU CENTRED
ORANGA FOCUSED
Weaving the knowledge of community, design and healthcare together.
Tāmata Oranga hopes to bring people together and explore how health, design and community knowledge can be combined to refresh, revise or restore spiritual, social and emotional wellbeing for all. It is a place for people to come together and engage in interdisciplinary projects that focus on the spiritual, social and emotional wellbeing of individuals, whānau and communities.
These projects aspire to harness community knowledge, cultural values, co-design principles, creative practices and health-based research. The findings and practical outcomes of each project associated with Tāmata Oranga are presented here as a way of sharing the collective learnings of those involved in the project.
