The Waitangi National Trust is a charitable organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the historic Treaty of Waitangi, signed in 1840 between Māori tribes and the British Crown. Located at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds in New Zealand, it manages the site, which is a symbol of New Zealand’s founding agreement. The Trust facilitates cultural events, educational programs, and visitor experiences to celebrate Māori heritage and New Zealand history. Its mission is to foster understanding, respect, and harmony between Māori and Pākehā communities, ensuring the significance of the Treaty endures for future generations.
