Kahurangi was working on connecting rangatahi with their whenua before COVID, but when the funding dried up the Jobs for Nature programme was able to support him into work in his pā sites.

This project has been funded through Department of Conservation’s Jobs for Nature funding. Find out more about DoC’s contribution to Jobs for Nature here.
