About Te Wānanga o Raukawa
Established in 1981 in Ōtaki through the visionary leadership of the ART Confederation (Te Āti Awa ki Whakarongotai, Ngāti Raukawa ki te Tonga, and Ngāti Toa Rangatira), Te Wānanga o Raukawa (TWoR) is the earliest modern wānanga in Aotearoa New Zealand and a formally recognized Crown statutory tertiary institution under the Education and Training Act 2020 (NZQA Provider #9241). Dedicated to the revitalization of Te Reo Māori, Tikanga, and Mātauranga Māori, TWoR structures its degrees on a unique model integrating 50% specialized discipline studies, 25% te reo Māori language acquisition, and 25% iwi and hapū research. Its Ōtaki campus is internationally celebrated for landmark sustainable architecture, including the Living Building Challenge 4.0 certified Pā Reo enclave, the award-winning Te Ara a Tāwhaki library hub, and the Ngā Purapura health and sports sciences complex designed by Tennent Brown Architects.
