About

Ngā Mātai Pūrua Inc. (NMP) is an independent, not-for-profit Māori incorporated association based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. We exist to uplift and advance Māori through kapa haka, education, cultural leadership, advocacy and community connection.

​

Our work is grounded in tikanga Māori and a commitment to holistic well-being - physical, mental, spiritual, and whānau-based. We provide meaningful cultural experiences through kapa haka performances, cultural workshops, youth development, and community-led initiatives that celebrate identity and belonging.

​

We support rangatahi (youth) and whānau (families) to thrive through cultural learning, leadership pathways, and opportunities to perform and connect.
