Designing Whiria te Ora, the 2026 Māori Health Strategy
Manatū Hauora | Ministry of Health (2026)
The brief
Drawing on diverse community insights and the whakapapa of previous hauora Māori strategies, we grounded a brand narrative in pūrākau, reflecting both the current state and future aspirations of hauora Māori.
Key unlock
We do not wait for hauora. We prepare for it, reach for it, and bring it forward. Inspired by Te Taura Whītiki, we wanted to represent the unseen strength between the hook and the hand, and the taura that binds intention to action.
