COMMUNITY PROJECT CONCEPTS
These are provided as concepts to demonstrate the application of the “Mauri Model”, and as a creative outlet. If you have any ideas you would like to gift to the project please used the Contact Us form or our socials (links at the bottom of the page).
COMMUNITY PROJECT #417 - YOUTH GOVERNANCE INCUBATOR
Mission Statement:
To cultivate the next generation of "Universal Constructors" by placing rangatahi on shadow boards of local trusts to master governance and strategy.
The Needs Assessment:
Currently, many of our regional boards suffer from a "Static Bureaucracy" trap, where aging leadership lacks a clear succession plan. This creates a disconnect where our youth feel they have no narrative of success or connection to the decision-making processes that govern their whenua.
COMMUNITY PROJECT #416 - ANCESTRAL NAVIGATION ACADEMY
Mission Statement:
To revitalise the "Voyager Mindset" by providing practical training in celestial navigation and traditional waka sailing, reconnecting our youth to the moana and the stars.
The Needs Assessment:
The "Newtonian Error" has modernised us into a "Static Society" that views the ocean as a barrier or a resource for extraction, rather than a highway of connection. Our youth suffer from a lack of "Narrative of Excellence." We need to restore the "Universal Explainer" capability that allowed our ancestors to cross the Pacific with nothing but their minds and the environment.
