A key priority of RoVE is to better recognise the needs of Māori communities and acknowledge that Māori are significant employers with social and economic goals. To achieve this priority, Education Minister Chris Hipkins announced the creation of Taumata Aronui to provide Māori community and employer perspectives on vocational education.

Taumata Aronui was announced as part of the vocational education reform decisions released on 1 August. The group will work with and provide independent recommendations and advice to Ministers and officials on how tertiary education can respond better to the needs of Māori learners and communities. The focus of Taumata Aronui is to help design an education system that reflects the Government’s commitment to Māori Crown partnerships.

The Government is currently seeking nominations for Taumata Aronui, from across Aotearoa.
