two-day full pathway to accreditation course

Tuhono Model of Mediation

About this workshop

This workshop provides a practical and culturally grounded introduction to the Tūhono Māori mediation model. It is designed for those wanting to strengthen their mediation practice through tikanga-based approaches and work toward Māori mediation accreditation.

 

The workshop is open to participants at all levels of te reo and tikanga proficiency. There are no pre-requisites to attend.

 

This training was previously delivered over three days. It has now been refined into a two-day intensive format. The content has not been removed. Instead, delivery has been streamlined so the same material is covered in a more focused way, while reducing overall time commitments for participants.

There are no pre-requisites to attending this workshop.
