Coming from an area named after a female ancestor, Muriwhenua, provides an ongoing source of inspiration and resource to expand the understanding of the developmental experiences of wāhine, women, across the life span.

Exploring local Māori knowledge about Hinengaro, our deity of Mind, we travel through 23 caves, spiralling deep within Papatūānuku, our earth mother. This curated path, or ara, articulated by our wheinga, our ancestors reveals new ways of thinking about thinking. We unlock previously unrealised potential and choices to discover a sense of resourcefulness and ease in our world of uncertainty and terrifying extremes.

This approach invites wāhine of all cultures to explore their own personal journeys which ignite new perspectives, hope and resources for helping to solve our complex modern problems.
