Tūhoe
Ko Ahorangi Rawinia Higgins (Tūhoe) te Tumu Ahurei Tuarua Māori ki Te Whare Wānanga o Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington. Ko Ahorangi Higgins tētahi mema o te Poari o Te Pūtea Matua o Aotearoa me te Hea me te Kaikōmihana o Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori. Ko Ahorangi Higgins te wahine tuatahi i kopoua ki tēnei tūnga. I pōtitia ia hei māngai o te Rohe o Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa i runga i te Global Taskforce for the UNESCO International Decade of Indigenous Languages. Kua kopoua a Ahorangi Higgins ki ētahi tūnga poari mana urungi, tohutohu hoki mō te kāwanatanga, ngāi Māori, iwi anō hoki. Ko tana mātanga rangahau ko te whakarauora i te reo Māori, otirā, ko tana mātanga whāiti ko te whakamahere me te kaupapahere reo, ā, ko ia tētahi o ngā tino toki i tārai i te anga ture me te kaupapahere reo Māori onāianei.
