WORLD INDIGENOUS SUICIDE PREVENTION CONFERENCE 2026 · TUURANGAWAEWAE MARAE · 4–6 NOVEMBER
Nau mai, haere mai
Whakamomori / Suicide Prevention
Te Tiratū welcomes delegates, speakers and whānau to Tūrangawaewae Marae. We’ve long stood up for rangatahi Māori and the inequities they face. We believe in the power of this kaupapa and sponsored 10 kaiako to attend. Suicide prevention takes courage, culture and collective action.
Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini.
KNOWLEDGE TO SHARE
When whānau speak, we take it further.
What we’re hearing. What the evidence shows. What we’re calling for.
