Strategic Direction
Whāia te toi huarewa o te auahatanga , hei kete toitoi manawa mō Tāmaki Makaurau
Seek the pathway of creativity as a kete of inspiration for Auckland
The strategic direction of Te Taumata Toi-a-Iwi as a regional arts trust is inspired by our whakatauki and moemoeā (vision), guided by our kaupapa and values, and actioned through defined inter-connected areas of impact. These form a roadmap with two pathways of activation, Creative Tāmaki Makaurau and Te Manawa.
Creative Tāmaki Makaurau works to create a stronger sector voice, build understanding of the sector’s needs, and encourage a collaborative strategic response to those needs. Te Manawa provides strategic leadership, visionary thinking, and direction toward achieving the goals and aspirations of hapori ringatoi Māori.
Our theory of change identifies a set of tangible progress outcomes that allow us to track our short-term contribution. The outcomes weave across the impact areas, reflecting their interconnectivity.
