Register now for KAI CONFERENCE at TE MĀNUKA TŪTAHI MARAE, 29 & 30 June, 2025
Ngā Āhuatanga o te Kai and New Zealand Food Safety Science Research Centre (NZFSSRC) are convening this innovative event to wānanga and hear kōrero about Food Safety from a Māori perspective.
Kai, to us, means much more than food. It is a unique Māori way of living that is deeply grounded in our mātauranga and is part of a system of knowledge, values, practices and relationships that reinforces our collectivity and cultural identity.
Today we face big challenges in relation to kai. Issues related to kai sovereignty and security, socio-economic and health inequities, environmental degradation and climate change mean that many of our whānau not only do not always have access to culturally, nutritionally and physically safe kai.
This conference will range across environmental impacts on food production and health, food safety on marae, Māori philosophies with respect to kai and kai production, and stories from the past and present.
