Ki Te Ara Whakamua – Māori Community AOD Action Fund Previous Recipients​

Ki te Ara Whakamua is a one-off contestable fund established to support Māori-led solutions to reduce alcohol and other drug harm. The overall vision for the fund is Kia tika te wā; kia tika te wāhi, kia tika te tangata; kia ora te whānau – that whānau will thrive and flourish, with the right people, in the right place, at the right time. There are two funding streams available, including community-led initiatives and whanau-led initiatives. Whānau groups can apply for grants of $10,000 and community groups can apply for up to $25,000. We would like to acknowledge and celebrate all the whānau who are part of the alcohol and other drug workforce for the mahi they do in reducing AOD harms within their hapori.
