Bringing te reo Māori to life through waiata
Te Māngai Pāho provides contestable funding for Māori music related activities. For a long time we only funded music tracks and videos, and events. We now fund a number of activities, in particular: music recordings and publicity, music sector wānanga, breakthrough projects, support & guidance for developing artists and Māori music activities that promote Māori language and culture.
