About Program

Kia ora, welcome to Waikato!

Te Ao Hurihuri is an enriching cultural immersion programme offered by the University of Waikato. You'll start this two week journey beginning with a pōwhiri, a traditional Māori welcoming ceremony to officially welcome you to campus. You'll engage with Māori academic experts, take part in immersive experiences that celebrate Indigenous traditions, and connect with a community of students and staff who share a passion for Indigenous knowledge and experiences. Te Ao Hurihuri opens the door to a deeper appreciation of Māori ways of thinking, living, and engaging with the world.

Haere mai - come and hear our stories, discover our ties to each other, and reflect on how we can all be good ancestors.
