Community Governance NZ and the Institute of Directors (IoD) have formed a new partnership to run the Tuakana Teina programme for new Chairs of not-for-profits. This collaboration aims to strengthen and support the community governance sector with best-practice expertise of the IoD.

The concept of Tuakana Teina is a Māori values-based principle of ako (two-way learning), which draws upon shared experience, knowledge and support.

*Please note: Due to overwhelming demand, the Tuakana Teina Mentoring Programme is now fully booked. Please contact us should you wish to be placed on a wait list for 2022. Thank you for your interest.
