the ocean speaks
TŪRANGA GISBORNE | AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND
TE PAEPAE O TANGAROA
OCEANS SYMPOSIUM
OCTOBER 6 & 7, 2019 | GISBORNE TAIRĀWHITI | AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND
Te Paepae o Tangaroa was a rare chance to kōrero about the challenges facing Te Moananui a Kiwa – the Pacific Ocean. Our panelists shared their knowledge, experience, and solutions, in a series of engaging and encouraging conversations with attendees about the life and voice of the ocean.
The ocean that connects our coastlines also connects us as people all faced with a rapidly changing environment.
We started with a wealth of local knowledge from people doing critical work in Tairāwhiti and around Aotearoa. We then heard from inspirational environmental leaders from Tahiti, the Cook Islands and Samoa, all doing ground-breaking work for their own communities.
Video highlights from the symposium will be shared on this website in early 2020.
