Te Ohaakii a Hine - National Network for Ending Sexual Violence Together
Te Ohaakii a Hine - National Network for Ending Sexual Violence Together
TOAH-NNEST Partnership
The Taskforce was developed on a partnership basis between government and TOAH-NNEST. The partnership approach recognises the considerable subject matter expertise and knowledge of the sector alongside the knowledge and resources of government.
TOAH-NNEST have been involved at every level of the Taskforce, from leadership and work programme design, through to working with officials to develop an information and evidence base and find solutions.
Partnership with the sector has recognised and supported a Te Tiriti o Waitangi/Treaty of Waitangi based partnership between the Tauiwi caucus and Ngā Kaitiaki Mauri (NKM) of TOAH-NNEST. The significance of this partnership approach is that distinct Māori approaches and solutions are being provided for as part of Taskforce work.
TOAH-NNEST Structure
Recognition and implementation of Te Tiriti o Waitangi has been instrumental in the development of Te Ohaakii a Hine – National Network Ending Sexual Violence Together (TOAH-NNEST). The history and development of TOAH-NNEST spans generations and presents itself today in the form of a Tiriti Based Relationship Structure.
The Network consists of two 'houses' designed to reflect the relationship envisioned in Te Tiriti o Waitangi:
- the tikanga Māori House: Ngā Kaitiaki Mauri a Te Ohaakii a Hine – National Network Ending Sexual Violence Together; and
- the tauiwi house: Te Ohaakii a Hine – National Network Ending Sexual Violence Together – Tauiwi Caucus Incorporated.
