Te Matawai surveys flaxroots reo efforts
Maori language promotion agency Te Matawai is asking people who have organised, participated in, or funded activities to support te reo Maori revitalisation to complete an online survey about their efforts.
He Reo Ora survey was developed by the New Zealand Council for Educational Research as part of a wider research programme.
The agency's tumu whakarae, Te Atarangi Whiu, says activities and resources people organise and develop for themselves, their whanau, and their communities play an important part in restoring the language.
She says the survey will help Te Matawai get the big picture of initiatives from all over the country, and it will use the information to create a free database to help people find and share activities and resources that can support them on their te reo Maori journeys.
The survey on https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HeReo will run until April 6.
