Kia Kotahi Ako

Indigenous knowledge transforming education and environmental solutions from Aotearoa. 
 

Established in 2021, Kia Kotahi Ako (Learning As One) is an alliance of Edmund Hillary Fellows, activating education initiatives that will have the biggest impact for Papatūānuku (mother earth). 

WHY? We have a climate crisis and an inequitable education system. We’re working to tackle both of these issues - together. We’d love your help. 

We have a Climate Emergency and empowering learners to be change-makers needs to be central to education.
