Āki Innovations Ltd (Āki) is a Kaupapa Māori social enterprise, led by two wāhine Māori of Ngāti Maniapoto, Whakatōhea and Tūhoe descent who are motivated to nurture whānau wellbeing by unpacking complex intergenerational challenges.
We’re looking to work with those that are grounded in a Kaupapa Māori approach of ‘by Māori, for Māori, with Māori, in a Māori way’ and welcome allies to journey with us.
ĀKI Rongoā Māori
Facilitating access to Rongoā Māori
Rongoā Māori refers to a wide range of traditional Māori healing modalities, incorporating holistic aspects of mind, body and spirit. At ĀKI we offer Mirimiri, Whitiwhiti Kōrero and Karakia within the Waikato region.
Mirimiri
Mirimiri incorporates physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of a person’s wellness. It aids in releasing and relieving tension and pain that may be stored in parts of the body.
Whitiwhiti Kōrero
Whitiwhiti Kōrero is a forum for cultural support and advice.
