”The kaupapa of Snowchange is to research the implications of snowchange on indigenous knowledge – specifically, indigenous peoples in the Arctic Circle.
Mahinekura Reinfeld attended the Snowchange Conference in Anchorage, Alaska in 2005. After some discussion it became apparent that we organize a hui within the next year to take place in Taranaki. It was requested that a Maori Elder Huirangi Waikerepuru to be part of this.
Te Hurihanga Haupapa Charitable Trust has been established to support the planning of this exciting hui which will include indigenous peoples of the Arctic Circle and other areas of the world with an interest and who are prepared to be responsible in proactive conservation pursuits in global change/snowchange.”
