JOURNEYS ON THE WHANGANUI is the joint marketing initiative of the Whanganui Maori Regional Tourism Organisation, and combines products from tourism operators based on and alongside the Whanganui River in the North Island, New Zealand/ Aotearoa. The area in which they operate is one with deep spiritual and cultural significance to Whanganui Iwi and all operators, Maori and non-Maori, respect these values. We have combined as a group to offer visitors the chance to share the lifestyle we are privileged to enjoy and a chance to experience the wairua (spirit) of our place in Aotearoa.

The James Henare Maori Research Centre was established in 1993, in response to a request from representatives of the Maori people of the Taitokerau for a research centre at the University of Auckland which would focus the intellectual resources of the University on issues relevant to their needs. It was named in honour of the late Sir James Henare, an eminent Maori leader and scholar, who played a key role in impressing on the University the importance of honouring its responsibilities in these matters. The Centre seeks to contribute to Maori social, cultural and economic well-being and advancement through its research programmes and activities.
