New Zealand is our home

We encourage all visitors to pick up this wero. To follow the Tiaki Promise. To act as a guardian, protecting and preserving our home.

This land tells the story of our people. This sky is our father, and this earth is our mother. This nature is part of us, and we are part of nature.

When you travel through Aotearoa New Zealand, you too are a part of this story. You too are part of this place. We all have a responsibility to protect it.

Tiaki means to care for people, place and culture. Care for New Zealand on your travels, for now and for future generations.

Te Wero - Our Challenge

In New Zealand we welcome manuhiri (guests) in the spirit of manaakitanga (respect, kindness and hospitality). Hear our call. Feel welcome.

We also present our visitors with a wero (challenge). This wero is a challenge and commitment to care for New Zealand. This wero is the Tiaki promise.
