Ma te tane he whakatika, ma te wahine he whakatika.
Thanks for the time
Let’s action the spirit
Good to look at the values.
After-shocks still hard to deal with
Tika – if it’s good for a 10yr old, must be good for me (you had to be there)
We must be about political change

9. Facilitator Learnings
While we allowed 1 hour to discuss values in pairs, the time could easily have been extended to 2 hours
Find additional activities to engage values
“General stream”, coined by T. Wilson 2004, better word to use than mainstream to represent monoculutre.
We could have discussed only 2 values versus 4 to allow deeper discussion about each
Used beautiful posters in the room for inspiration
