Multicultural Collective

Fiscal Host: Gift Collective

We organise events and projects with a direct impact to the community in Tawa and Porirua.

About


Want to collaborate? Email us at [email protected]

We are a non-profit group who organises projects and events that foster multicultural and intersectional solidarity, increase social cohesion, honor Te Tiriti o Waitangi and make a positive impact. We serve the Tawa and Porirua communities and support folks from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. We collaborate with multiple groups that align with our values.

Tawa and Porirua have about 14 different languages other than English and have a high number of people from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. This presents many opportunities for culture sharing and multicultural solidarity.

Our values
  • Curiosity: we are interested in different cultures and ways of doing things, and want to break out of our own cultural and contextual bubbles.
  • Intersectionality: we acknowledge a person is not unidimensional, but a combination of many contexts like culture, ethnicity, gender identity, neurodiversity, family, personality, etc.
  • Integrity: we honour our commitments, follow through with our promises and respect groups rules.
  • Action-oriented: we give our time and effort to carrying out a successful event or project that makes an impact.
  • Mana-enhancing: we behave in words and actions in a way that cares for other’s entire dimensions.
