Māori activism

Māori activism involves efforts by the Indigenous Māori people of New Zealand to protect their cultural heritage, rights, and land. It seeks recognition of Māori language, customs, and sovereignty, often in response to historical and ongoing injustices. Activists utilize protests, legal actions, and cultural revitalization to advocate for equitable treatment and self-determination. This movement plays a key role in fostering awareness and respect for Māori identity within New Zealand society, helping to address past grievances and build a more inclusive future.
