Ōhanga Rearea is an inclusion framework that supports groups and organisations to recognise, respect, and enhance the mana of rainbow and takatāpui communities. Our mission is to provide free support and resources to those on a journey to whakamana (empower) rainbow and takatāpui people at their organisation, and to strengthen and organise work that has already been initiated.

In our work in developing this framework, we are inspired by the small but mighty rearea bird - which when nurtured, can achieve a great many things. For us, the rearea represents the needs and aspirations of our takatāpui and rainbow people, and we treasure the manu and all that it can teach us.

We don’t believe in setting up paywalls and hefty contracts for knowledge extracted from our communities that may benefit our communities, and that’s why Ōhanga Rearea is and will always be a free, open source resource.
