While we have made considerable progress in each work stream, we continue to be future-focussed. Our work streams reflect the forward looking nature of our challenge.  Te reo me onā tikanga (Culture, People and Organisation) – our effort to raise our individual and collective knowledge and understanding of Māori language and culture.
 Whanaungatanga (Advocacy building) – our efforts to strengthen the ties between the Reserve Bank and Iwi, Māori, Māori business and organisations.  Kaitiakitanga (Policy Impact) – recognition of our responsibility as a policy maker and as guardian of the financial system. Through this framework, we are working to gradually strengthen our understanding of, and interactions with, Te Ao Māori.
