Manaaki Ora is a suit of Wānanga developed as a way of addressing Māori suicide. Each wānaga is tailored to exploring and broadening understanding of Māori approaches of working with whānau, individuals and community groups who are Māori. There are currently three key parts to the Manaaki Ora Wānanga. (Go to the links below to register for each wānanga).
The first wānanga, TANGATA IHI – is a short on-line introductory module (which takes approximately 1 hour to complete).

What is it?
Tiaki Whanau Tiaki Ora is a suicide prevention programme developed by Te Rau Ora that aims to build healthy whānau by increasing their awareness of risk factors to suicide and the strategies that will strengthen whānau resilience and wellbeing.
We know suicide is not an easy topic to approach or discuss, however, we have developed tools and resources to help us do so safely.
During the wānanga
This wānanga is an orientation to the Tiaki Whānau Tiaki Ora programme and provides an opportunity and space for attendees to share and discuss this kaupapa and consider how we as whānau can support one another. We are strong believers that solutions lie within whānau and when given the tools and resources they can flourish.
It is our intention to sign on Whānau Champions (from those who attend), to share specially tailored suicide prevention toolkits with their whānau.
