Haka in Parliament & The Treaty of Waitangi Explained

Discover the powerful tradition of the Haka performed in New Zealand's Parliament, a moving tribute that honors Māori culture and its enduring significance. This traditional Māori war dance symbolizes unity, respect, and identity, reflecting the partnership between Māori and the Crown established through *Te Tiriti o Waitangi* (The Treaty of Waitangi). Signed in 1840, the Treaty is a foundational document in New Zealand’s history, outlining agreements for governance, land ownership, and shared rights. However, its interpretation has been a source of ongoing dialogue and reconciliation. Join us as we explore this unique expression of cultural heritage and its deep connection to New Zealand's past and present.
