Multicultural New Zealand is launching what it’s calling a tiriti-based Multicultural Day to be held annually on the last Friday of August.
President Pancha Narayanan says it’s a chance for people all over New Zealand to bring their cultural heritage into their work and family life.
This includes wearing traditional attire, sharing traditional food and music, speaking in their native language, sharing stories from their home or kāinga tipu (ancestral homeland).
The day will belong to everyone in New Zealand, not only recent migrant and former refugee communities.
