Whakaruruhau - Partnering for Whānau Symposium
Waikato Women's Refuge Te Whakaruruhau and Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga hosted Te Whakaruruhau-Partnering for Whānau Symposium on the 19th - 20th July 2018.
This symposium brought together targeted groups of government, non-government, and local community organisations, as well as Iwi, researchers, specialist, legal, reformed perpetrators and survivors of domestic violence.
All of these groups gathered together over two days to share information, exchange success stories and discuss the ongoing challenges that whānau face when dealing with domestic violence.
With the permission of the participants, NPM filmed many of the presenters and their presentations and these videos are available online for our network to view. We will be highlighting a collection of these talks over the coming weeks and months.
